Scarpia
|
|
Three men; a carriage; follow her.
Don't let her see you.

Spoletta

|
Good! Where shall we meet?
|
Scarpia
|
|
At the Farnese Palace.
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Go, Tosca!
Scarpia will build his nest
in your heart!
Scarpia has let loose the falcon
of your jealousy.
There's great promise
in your suspicion.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I take aim at two goals,
and the head of the rebel
is not the biggest prize!
Ah! To see those fiery eyes
grow dim with the ecstasy of love!
He goes to the gallows;
she, to my arms!
Tosca!
You make me forget God!
As Scarpia dedicates himself to his twin goals, the service begins in great pomp and splendor. The choir sings out fervently as the curtain falls.
