Athalia |
Where I am? Furies, wild despair! |
Where are my guards, my vassals, where? |
Mathan, invoke thy God to shed |
His vengeance on each rebel’s head! |
Mathan |
He hears no more, our hopes are past, |
The Hebrews’ God prevails at last! |
Alas, alas, my broken vow, |
His dreadful hand is on me now! |
