Il rito augusto si compia

English Libretto or Translation:

VALTON
The august rite is accomplished without me.
to Arturo
Mercè of this sheet
You up to the free temple step you will have.
to Giorgio
You will accompany him.
to Enrichetta, who comes out accompanied by Bruno
O, noble lady,
The tall Anglican sovereign Parliament
He calls you in his presence: I am escort to you.

ENRICHETTA
to himself
Alas, what a feeling!
in Valton
And what do you want from me?
to himself
My hope is dead!

VALTON
It suits me
Obey and be silent. Other non-lice.

ARTURO
to Giorgio on the sidelines
Is it your friend?

GEORGE
She is a prisoner
For many nights, and it was believed by everyone
Amica de 'Stuardi and message board
Under the name.

ARTURO
looking mercifully at Enrichetta
Hate! What a listening!
His fate is decisive: it is lost.
Or unfortunate!

ENRICHETTA
noticing Arturo
What a pity in that face!

VALTON
Oh, children! at the rite, at the pompous parties
You take each one of them. The wedding dress
Go, or beloved, to wear.
to the bridesmaids
Ite you.
to Bruno
Out of the vault my destrier sian lent.
in Enrichetta
Our way there is strength to hurry.
to children
How I join heaven, or a loved couple.

Valton leaves with the guards: Giorgio and Elvira leave with the bridesmaids. Arturo makes a semblance of leaving, but looks carefully around, almost to make sure everyone has gone.
