Ah! segnata e la mia sorte

English Libretto or Translation:

ANNA:
(Ah! My fate is sealed,
if the one who accuses me is the one who condemns me.
Ah! I will succumb to the power
of such a tyrannical law.
But after my death
I will one day be exculpated and absolved.)

HENRY:
(Yes, your fate is sealed,
if only I could have a suspect
Whoever shares my throne
can have no stain on earth.
I will feel sorry for your death
but I will still give you death.)

PERCY, JANE,SMEATON and ROCHEFORT:
(Ah! My fate is sealed; every attempt to escape it is vain.
No skill on earth or human strength can allay it now.
Death is already in my heart and I'm not even dead yet.)

CHORUS:
(Ah! By how many adverse evil fates is the English throne
afflicted. A more deadly one has not descended on it
than that which has broken forth here.
Innocence has the death here which sin plotted.)
