You see?
1:04:02
Let us act childish, act mad, act foolish.
1:04:08
When life threatens to slip away,
seize it while you can.

1:04:12
On stage!
1:04:24
Deep in the harem...
1:04:26
where man ventures not for fear of death,
1:04:29
Angelica discovered
the dark joys of captivity.

1:04:35
Is any prison more voluptuous?
1:04:38
Oblivious of duty,
1:04:40
to satisfy a passion censured here,
1:04:44
but not in the Orient,
1:04:46
the Grand Eunuch smuggled
1:04:48
young Astolphe in
under the heavy veils of these houris

1:04:54
who fill Mahomet's paradise.
1:04:57
But,
1:04:59
during that time,
1:05:01
the favorite, consumed by jealousy,
sharpens a dagger.

1:05:06
The shrew will strike,
1:05:08
tear out Angelica's heart
1:05:10
before the Grand Turk's wild-eyed gaze.
1:05:14
Faced with this monstrous spectacle,
1:05:17
the libertine cannot conceal an emotion
1:05:23
that is only too natural.
1:05:36

On orders of Citizen Avril, Public Works.
1:05:53
The ditch must be 25 feet long,
1:05:54
16 feet wide and 23 feet deep.
1:05:57
Sink posts at each end.
