My souls fly shivering,

My tears intermingle from me.

SHINING AUGUST-EMPEROR: (Sings)

The grand and mighty Son of Heaven is honoured,

But not up to even Don’t-sorrow’s628 family.

(Emperor and Empress Yang weep together)

TOGETHER: (Sing)

Do you mean to say that love and honour

In a trice are cast away!

EMPRESS YANG. (Kneeling down) I your subject maidservant have received Your August Majesty’s deep loving-favours, which I can’t repay even by being killed. At present, the impetus of events is perilously critical, and I hope that you will confer upon me the chance to commit suicide, so as to calm the army. When you’ve managed safely and securely to reach Shu, even though I’ve died, I shall be as if still alive.

(Sings)
