Oh, if the crawling grave- worm, could be made to speak! What fate un- merited to be the ill-starred Queen of Mummies ! IRAS Are you not our Queen too all we who re- spond as the quivering harp to life's lightest touch. CLEOPATRA (disregarding) Even were I loved but I am not I am not. MARDION How not, O Queen, when every speeding glance of yours leaves in its wake a shatter- ed heart? CLEOPATRA How should a Queen know whether she be loved or no? Were I to descend from my throne might I not fall... short of the success of the first courtesan from Athens? (She rises, stretches her arms in supplication). O Gods, give me proof that I am loved, because I am my woman's self! Give me some poignant unexpected, some strangely sweet adventure. Give me something radiantly rarely different everything known is staled and unsupport- able ! Gods, Gods, do not deny me something to enkindle a fresh spark of life in my heart, atrophied as this land. Gods, Gods, do not deny! (Cleopatra's arms are still extended in the exalta- tion of invocation, when a curious whistling sound is heard and a quivering arrow buries its point near her.
