Scarpia
|
|
The well in the garden! Go, Spoletta!
|
Cavaradossi
|
|
You've betrayed me! I curse you!
|
Sciarrone enters.
|
Sciarrone
|
|
Excellency, terrible news!
|
Scarpia
|
|
What's wrong?
|
Sciarrone
|
|
A defeat!
|
Scarpia
|
|
Where? How?
|
Sciarrone
|
|
At Marengo.
|
Scarpia
|
|
Fool! That's wrong.
|
Sciarrone
|
|
Bonaparte has won. Melas has fled!
|
Cavaradossi
|
|
The dawn of vengeance appears
to strike terror in our foes!
Freedom shall arise and tyrants will be struck down!
I rejoice in my suffering...
|
Scarpia
|
|
Such bravado!
|
Cavaradossi
|
|
Let your heart tremble, you butcher!
|
Scarpia
|
|
Your fate is sealed!
Take him away, the scaffold awaits!
|
Sciarrone and agents seize Cavaradossi and carry him away.
|
|
|
|
|
Tosca
|
|
Mario, I'll go with you.
|
Scarpia
|
|
You stay!
