EDA BENNIE (Soprano)
HUGHES MACKLIN (Tenor)
THE first song is sung by Lionel, who has lost his love ' Martha (really Lady Harriet Durham in disguise)., He tells of his sorrow at parting from her, and conjures her not to leave him in despair.
DON CÆSAR DE BAZAN, to escape hanging, has married a veiled lady whom lie does not know. After the ceremony she has gone away. Ho is. searching for her, but she eludes him. Such,' he muses, ' is the promised but fading happiness of the profligate when nothing remains to him but the sad memory of the past.' Then ho puts these sentiments into the song, ' There is a flow'r that bloometh.'
