SCENE VII.

CONTINUATION OF THE DUET.

_Turiddu._

(To Sant.)

Ah! how foolish! naught availing!

_Santuzza._

(Coldly.)

I have spoken; 'tis well--'tis the truth.

_Turiddu._

(Threateningly.)

Ah! by heaven!

_Santuzza._ My heart is breaking!

_Turiddu._

(Approaching her.)

No!

_Santuzza._

(Warding him away.)

Turiddu, ah! hear me!

_Turiddu._

Go!

(Turns from her.)

_Santuzza._

(Threateningly.)

False! False!

_Turiddu._

(With increased rage.)

Thus I reward thee in my anger.

(Throws her down, and hastens into the church.)

_Santuzza._

(In the height of fury.)

Accurs'd! accurs'd at Easter, thou false one.

(Falls, despairingly.)

SCENA VII.

_Turiddu._

(Con ironia.)

Ah! lo vedi, che hai tu detto?

_Santuzza._

(Fredda.)

L'hai voluto e ben ti sta!

_Turiddu._

(S'avventa.)

Ah! Per Dio!

_Santuzza._ Squarciami il petto.

_Turiddu._

(S'avvia.)

No!

_Santuzza._

(Trattenendolo.)

Turiddu, ascolta!

_Turiddu._ Va!

_Santuzza._

(Minacciosa.)

Bada!

_Turiddu._

(Con moltissima forza.)

Dell'ira tua non mi curo!

(La getta a terra e fugge in chiesa.)

_Santuzza._

(Nel colmo dell'ira.)

A te la mala Pasqua, spergiuro!

(Cade affranta ed angosciata.)
