yesternight�察�Have traversed the wide sea of space that rolls Between the 

shores   of   this   and   other   worlds�察  �Have   gazed   upon   and   scanned   those 

worlds�察    �or  shades    That    wear   the   lineaments     of  such�察  �have    seen   The 

damned in their own place�察�and marked the deep�察�Terrific retribution Error 

brings To such as are her votaries in life。             And now I feel how baseless 

was   my   hope   That   Peace�察  �the   solitary   boon   I   crave�察  �Might   spring   from 

knowledge。 Tis a fatal tree�察�Which ever hath borne bitter fruit�察�since first 

'Twas     set  in  Paradise。    But   I  must    seek   The    cottage   of   some    honest 

mountaineer�察  �Who   may   afford   me   nurture   and   repose�察  �For   I   am   weary�察�

both in mind and frame。 ��Exit。 

     Scene II。 A chamber in the cottage of Manuel。 Albert asleep。 Rebecca 

standing by his couch。 

     Rebecca。 

        My boy� �my beautiful�察�my dearest hope� �The garner where my trust 

of future joy Is treasured。 Heaven bless thee� �May thy life�察�If it seem good 

to Him who gave it�察�be Blest to the fulness of a mother's prayer� �

     ��She stoops to kiss him�察�and continues。 

     How well his sleep portrays a quiet mind�察�The embodied image of a 

sunny day�察�A day without a cloud�察�whose only voices Arise from sighing 

airs�察  �and   whispering      leaves�察  �And    tell´tale  brooks     that  of  their   banks 

beseech A gift�察�a wreath of their sweet flowers�察�wherewith To soothe the 

angry Geni of the deep� �And free�察�glad birds that flit from bough to bough�察�

And   ring   their   songs   of   love   in   the   clear   air�察  �Till   heaven   is   filled   with 

gushing   melody�察  �And   the   all´glowing   horizon   becomes   A   thing   of   life�察�

whose breath is sweetest music� �

     ��Kisses him again�察�and continues。 

     His brow to me is as a spotless page�察�Whereon is traced the story of 

my   first   And   only   love�察  �the   bright   and   holy   dream   That   stole   into   my 

bosom�察�when beside The crystal stream that threads a neighbouring vale�察�I

and   his   father   watched   our   fathers'   flocks�察 �And   he   would   lay   aside   his 

shepherd's pipe�察�And in low words�察�far sweeter than its music�察�Talk of the 

sun and stars and gentle moon�察�The earth and all its loveliness�察�the trees 

And shrubs and flowers�察�how these were all pervaded And quickened by 

the spirit of deep love�察�Till�察�by the frequent blush that tinged my cheek�察�

The light that would break from my downcast eyes�察�And the quick beat of 

my too happy heart�察�Emboldened�察�he poured out his own pure passion�察�On 

my enchanted ear� �Since then my life Has had no eras��days�察�and months�察�

and   years�察  �Have   all   gone   by  uncounted�察  �in   the   full�察  �Deep�察  �fervent�察 �soul´ 

sufficing happiness�察�Of all I prayed for�察�panted for�察�obtained� �But I must 

rouse him�察�it is time his flock Should leave the fold�察�and 

     ��The boy starts and murmurs in his sleep。 

     Down   by   yonder   stream�察  �Where   the   green   willows   cluster   thickest�察�

there They dwell。 'Tis scarce so far as I could cast A pebble from my sling。 

Seek it�察�and they Will minister to thee what thou mayest need。 

     ��He awakes�察�and recognising his mother�察�exclaims 

     Ah�察�mother� �I have dreamed so strange a dream�察�So strange�察�and yet so 

palpable�察�that I Believed it a reality。 Methought As closely followed by my 

bleating    flock�察  �I  climbed   the   rugged    mountain     side   where   spring    Our 

greenest pastures�察�singing as I went�察�I met a lonely wanderer in my way�察�

Of   brow  so pale�察 �and   eye   so   darkly  sad�察�That   my  own   heart�察 �to   sadness 

little used�察�Grew heavy at the sight�察�and he seemed worn And very weary�察�

not   so   much   with   toil As   by   some   hidden�察  �inward   strife   of   soul�察 �Which 

even then seemed raging in his breast。              He stayed to question me where 

he might find The cottage of some honest mountaineer�察�Where he might 

crave the  boons of   rest and   food�察�And   mindful of the lesson   taught by 

thee�察�To give the hungry bread�察�the weary rest�察�I pointed him to where our 

cottage stands�察�Assuring him that thou and my sweet sister�察�Fair as aught 

earthly�察�and as pure as fair�察�Would entertain him as a welcome guest�此�And 

so we parted。 

     Rebecca。        Thou     didst   well  to  mind    The    lesson   I  so  often   have 

repeated。 It is our first of duties to give aid To those who beg for succour 

at our hands�察�For we ourselves�察�whatever we possess�察�Are but the stewards

of the bounteous Lord Who giveth to his creatures all good gifts。 But it is 

time that thou shouldst seek the hills�察�So take thy crook and pipe and hie

     Scene     III。  The    side   of  a  mountain。      Werner     descending。     Enter    a 

shepherd boy�察�followed by his flock�察�singing。 

                                                I。 

     When      the  Morning      starts  up  from   her   couch    on   the   deep�察  �Where 

through     the   dim   night   hours�察   �she  pillows    her   sleep�察  �I  start  from   my 

slumbers�察  �and   hie   me   away   Where   the   white   torrent   dashes   its   feathery 

spray�察  �I   quaff   the   fresh   stream   as   it   bursts   from   the   hill�察  �I   pluck   the 

fresh flowers that spring by the rill�察�I watch the gray clouds as they curl 

round the peak That rises high over them�察�barren and bleak�察�And I think 

how the worldling who courts fortune's smile�察�In his heart�察�like that peak�察�

may be   lonely  the while�察�And   then   my own   heart   sings aloud in its  joy�察�

That Heaven has made me a free shepherd boy� �

                                               II。 

     When   the   horn   of   the   hunter   resounds   from   on   high�察 �Where   the   tall 

giant ice´cliffs ire piled to the sky�察�Where�察�shunning the verdure of valleys 

and dells�察�The brave eagle builds�察�and the shy chamois dwells�察�I list to its 

gay tones�察�as by me they float�察�And I echo them merrily back�察�note for note�察�

With the wild bird a song full as gladsome I sing�察�I crown me with flowers�察�

and   sit   a   crowned   king�察  �My  flock   are   my  subjects�察  �my  dog   my   vizier�察�

And my sceptrea mild onethe crook that I bear�察�No wants to perplex 

me�察�no cares to annoy�察�I live an unenvying�察�free shepherdhoy� �

     Werner ��meets and addresses him��。 

     Thou'rt merry�察�lad。 

     Albert。 

     Ay�察�I have cause to be so。 ��Aside。�� It is the wanderer of my last night's 

dream�察�The same pale brow�察�and darkly mournful eye�察�And weary gait�察�and 

melancholy   voice�察  �If   he   seeks   friendly   guidance�察  �food�察  �or   shelter�察  �He 

shall not want them long。

     So thou hast cause For merriment��then thou perchance hast wealth�察�

Broad�察�fruitful lands�察�and tenements�察�and all Which wealth confers。 

     Albert。 

     Nay�察�I have none of these�察�And yet have more than all which thou hast 

named。 I have a father�察�whose unsullied name No tongue has ever spoken 

with reproach�察�A mother�察�whose idea is with me A holy thing�察�and a dear 

sister�察�who Is fair as pure�察�and pure as is the snow Upon the summit of the 

tallest   peak   Of   these   my   native   mountains。   I   have   health�察�And   strength�察�

and food�察�and raiment�察�and employ�察�And should I not then have a joyous 

heart�拭�

     Werner。 

     Yea�察�verily thou shouldst。 

     Albert。 

     And there is yet�察�Among the blessings Heaven has given to me�察�One 

which I have not named to thee�察�it is An humble home�察�whose hospitable 

door Was never closed against the wayfarer�察�If thou hast need of aught 

which it affords�察�Seek it�察�my mother and my sister will Delight to minister 

unto    thy  wants。    There   where    the   wide´armed      willows    cluster  thickest 

Upon the green banks of yon crystal stream�察�Our cottage stands。 The path 

to it is short And easily traversed��so�察�now�察�farewell。 

     Werner。 

        Stay yet a moment。 That which thou hast proffered�察�Is what I sought。 

Thou hast a noble heart�察�One fit to fill the bosom of a king�察�I fain would 

give thee guerdon��here is gold。 

     Albert。 

        Keep it for those who covet it。 If ever Thou meet'st with one�察�bowed 

down   by   suffering�察  �Who   calls   on   thee   for   pity   and   relief�察  �Then   if   thou 

heed'st his prayer for my sake�察�I shall be well repaid。 Again�察�farewell。 

     ��Exeunt。 

     Scene   IV。 After   a   lapse   of   time。 A  rustic   arbour   near   the   cottage   of 

Manuel。 Enter Rose and Werner。 

     Rose。 

        Nay�察  �let   my   silent   blushes   plead   with   thee   That   thou   wilt   be   as

silent。 

     Werner。 

     Rather let My ardent love�察�which will not be repressed�察�Plead with thee 

for acceptance of my suit�察�For I do love thee with such passionate love�察�

That life itself�察�if weighed against that love�察�Were scarce a feather in the 

scale。 

     Rose。 

     Alas�   �I'm   but   a   simple   shepherd's   simple   child�察  �Unused   to   courtly 

speeches�察�and they say That in the world thy name and rank are high�察�And 

that when such as thou do proffer love And faith to lowly maidens�察�'tis a 

jest�察�And   that   when   they  have   won   our   honest   love�察�They  cast   it   from 

them with unpitying hands�察�As idly as they would a withered flower。 

     Werner。
