  
Act 2 - 6: Coraggio |
|
Tosca gets near the door to the torture chamber. | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
Are you all right? | |
| Cavaradossi | ||
|
|
Have courage. Be silent. I defy them. | |
| Scarpia | ||
|
|
Now, Tosca, tell me. | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
I know nothing. | |
| Scarpia | ||
|
|
Was that not enough? Roberti, again! | |
|
Tosca | |
|
|
Stop! | |
| Scarpia | ||
|
|
You'll talk? | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
You monster! You're killing him! | |
| Scarpia | ||
|
|
Your silence is far more harmful. | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
How can you laugh at such pain? | |
|
Scarpia | |
|
|
Tosca has never given a better performance. Open the door so she can hear! | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
I defy you! | |
| Scarpia | ||
|
|
Tell me! Quickly! | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
I know nothing. Must I lie to you? | |
| Scarpia | |
|
|
Where is Angelotti? Where is he hidden? | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
I can't bear it! Stop this torture! It's too much to bear. (To Cavaradossi) Will you let me speak? | |
|
| Cavaradossi | |
|
|
Fool, what do you know? What can you say? | |
| Scarpia | ||
|
|
Make him be quiet! | |
| Tosca | ||
|
|
(To Scarpia) What have I ever done to you? You are torturing me! You are torturing my soul. | |
|
Scarpia commands the torture to be continued; Cavaradossi's groans are heard. | ||
