 ACT I. 
 
 Opens on a public place in Florence. In tlie distance the Gov- 
 ernment's palfice. On the riijht'tho entrance to a church. Groups 
 of Guelfes and Gibelins led, the formers by Corso, the latter by 
 Vieri threaten and defy one another. Thev are surrounded by meli 
 and women of the people. The day is that of the election of the 
 Chief Magistrate of the <. ity, aud both parties are confident 
 of their success. Enters Dante who re])roaches them with their in- 
 cessant quarrels and begs thom, ius'ead, unite their efforts against 
 the enemies of their country. Guelf.s and Gibelins laughVat him, 
 but the people listen aud advises Dante to present himself as a can- 
 didate at the election. They all enter the ])alace except Daule. 
 Dante then meets Simeoue jianli, an old friend of his, who re- 
 ]^roaehes him for his long absence and informs him that he is be- 
 trothed to a lovely maiden, whose charms he exalts .so much that 
 Dante's criosity is awakened, he asks B.irdi who she is and learns 
 that she is Beatrice Portarini, whom her father has promised him 
 for a signalled service rendered, whom he loves and by whom lie 
 kuew he was loved before he left Floreuce. Dante gives way to 
 despair and leaves the scene. Enters Beatrice and Gemma her 
 friend. Beatrice confesses to Genniia that she has always loved 
 Dante and would rather die than be married to Bardi. She has 
 scarcely uttered these word», when tlie people return from the 
 palace and shout the name of Daii'e who has been elected Prior of 
 the City. Dante appears brought back by Bardi and is seen by 
 Beatrice. The poet refuses the honor proferred but Beatrice appeals 
 rohini and tells him that it is his duty to devote himself to his 
 country and that he will find his reward in love. Dante understands 
 that Beatrice loves him yet, he accepts the dignity of Grand Prior, 
 and after exhorting the Florentines to cease their quarrels and unite 
 against their enemies, and he is vested with the rich mantel of the 
 Pri'T of Florence.

 ACTE IV. 
 
 Même décore qu'à l'acte précédent. Au lever du

 tombeau de Virgile. Le jour commence à, 
 venir. 
 
 Chœur daxs la Coulisse. DANTE, BARDI, 
 Ux Patke. 
 
 Ah! 
 
 Chœuk. 
 
 Bardi parait à droite. Un petit p.ltro qui le pré- 
 cède lui désigne du doigt Dante, toujours 
 endormi, et s'éloigne. Bardi l'ait ([UeUiues 
 pas, puis s'arrête, n'osant l'aboider. Dante 
 se réveille. Il promène d'abord un regard 
 étonné autour de lui. Puis, se retournant, il 
 se redresse et lève les yeux vers le ciel teint 
 de rose . 
 
 DANTE. 
 Voici que l'aurore se lève. 
 Le brouillard matinal se dissipe dans l'air. 
 Soudain il se rappelle. Sa figure s'illumine. 
 Ah! le merveUleus rêve 
 Que j'ai fait. 
 Vante aoerçoit Hardi et recvle d'un pas. 
 
 Lui suis-ie encore en enfer? ^ 
 
 BARDI. 
 Pardonnez-moi. ..je sui| indigne et coupable. 
 D'aveugle colère^nvahi 
 
 J'ai tout blessé, j'ai tout trahi 
 
 Du courroux qui m'accable 
 Trop juste est la rigueur. 
 Pouitant, pardonnez-moi. Le repentir est entré 
 
 [dans mon cœur.

 All is silent! All is effaced, 
 All is black !

 tomb. Day commences to break. 
 
 Chorus Behind the Scenes, DANTE, BABDI, 
 A Shepiiei:d. 
 
 Chorus. 
 Ah! 
 Bardi appears on the right. A little shepherd 
 boy who precedes him designates the sleep- 
 ing Dante with his finger and departs, 
 liardi advances some steps aud stops, not 
 ilariug to accost him. Dante awakes. He 
 first casts a surprised look around him. Then, 
 turning around , he straightens himself and 
 lifts his eves to the roseate sky. 
 DANTE. 
 Aurora is rising;. 
 The morning mist is dispelled in the air. 
 Suddenlij he remembers. His face brightens. 
 Ah ! "The miraculous dream 
 I have had. 
 
 Dante perceives Hardi andrecoils a step. 
 He! Ami still in hell? 
 BAEDI. 
 Pardon me ! I was unworthy and guilty 
 Carried away by blind anger, 
 I have wounded all, I have betrayed all ! 
 Of the blame which crushes me, 
 The rigor is but too just. 
 Yet pardon me. Repentance has entered my 
 
 [heart.

 De.ath cover of treasures forever lost! 
 
 There are enough wliite lilies open in the shade, 
 
 What matter to the Lord for one more flower. 
 
 Heaven cannot take from lier soul 
 
 What may remain of human happini^'is 
 
 For me her eyes have so pure a flame. 
 
 I am so happy to jircss her hand ! 
 
 Oh thou whom her sorrow iu se<ret demamis, 
 
 Angel of death pass on your way, 
 
 Do not have so soon her ovelids close. 
 
 Her beautiful forehead crowned with superfluous 
 
 The fields of repose have enough roses [flowers. 
 
 What matters to the tomb one flower more.

 Hope, courage, all are exhausted in me, 
 
 My soul is agonizing 
 
 Lot me dii'. 
 Why complain and alarm thee. 
 Death delivers us from our sorrows. 
 My heart can no longer live 
 Since it lias not, al.is, the right to love. 
 
 This is too much wecjting, 
 
 Too iiiiuh to sntfer.

 The Sasie, GEMMA, BARDI. 
 Beatrice vralks some steps, but suddenly' she 
 shudders a d places her hand on her heart 
 as if she felt it break. She totters, her hc:td 
 falls on the shoulders of Dante, vrho sup- 
 ports her. 
 
 BEATRICE. 
 
 Ah, God! Pardon friend 
 
 I cannot. 
 
 DANTE, terrified.

 Heaven would permit it to be accomidished. . ..I 
 But in thy arms ! [am going to die 
 
 DANTE. 
 
 Die! thon no, I cannot suffer it. 
 
 My Beatrice! 
 Beatrice, calling hack her strength, looks around, 
 then makes some steps towards the chapel ; she 
 joins her hands, her face assumes an eeytatic cx- 
 l>ression, her eyes are raised to hearen, she 
 already looks as if' no longer belonging to earth. 
 
 BEATRICE. 
 I go into the azure without sails 
 ■Where the angels with their hands 
 Collect the human tears 
 To change them into stars. 
 
 DANTE, renicmhering his dream. 
 The words I heard in the celestial regions 1 
 BEATRICE, in a broken voice. 
 And we shall be united. . .in the radiant sojourn. 
 In supreme ectasy aud eterual love!

 She is dead. Oh Death, 
 Carry off also my soul!
