Aria, Lohengrin's Farewell..... Wagner
LOHENGRIN, forced by his vows to leave his wife Elsa after having been induced by her to reveal his name and mission, is now about to depart. The swan, drawing the boat in which Lohengrin first came, now approaches. Lohengrin addresses the swan sadly and then turns and bids Elsa a tender and sorrowful farewell.

Act I, Scene 3, Die Walkure... Wagner
SIEGMUND, wounded and flying from his enemies, has come to the hut of Hunding, in the forest. There he finds Sieglinde, who gives him shelter, in which Hunding, returning later, acquiesces with surly hospitality. After the three have eaten, Hunding and Sieglinde retire but Sieglinde stealthily returns. The present excerpt begins from here. She recognises in Siegmund her deliverer, and points out to him a sword, deeply embedded in a tree trunk, that nobody can draw out. Siegmund, however, finds the strength to do so, to the great joy of Sieglinde, who now recognises her mate. After an impassioned duet, Siegmund carries Sieglinde off with him into the forest.
