ACT II.
LIEBETRAUT plays and sings.
HIS bow and dart bearing, And torch brightly flaring,Dan Cupid on flies;With victory laden, To vanquish each maidenHe roguishly tries.
Up! up!
On! on!
His arms rattle loudly, His wings rustle proudly, And flames fill his eyes.
Then finds he each bosomDefenseless and bare;They gladly receive himAnd welcome him there.
The point of his arrowsHe lights in the glow;They clasp him and kiss himAnd fondle him so.
He e o! Pap!
