Act 1 - 9: Or va, lasciami!
Tosca
Heavens! This is sinful! Look at me!
Cavaradossi
Now let me get to work.
Tosca
Keep working until the end of the day.
But promise me this:
Whether by chance or not,
no woman, either dark or fair
shall come here to pray.
Why do you hurry me?
Cavaradossi
Again?
Tosca
I'm sorry.
Cavaradossi
In front of the Madonna?!
Tosca nods towards the statue of the Madonna
Tosca
She understands.
- But make her eyes a little darker!
Tosca sweeps out of the sanctuary and is gone. Angelotti reappears.
