SCENE XIII.
GUILLAUME alone, arranging fruit
in baskets.
Ah! How well this Eleonore would suit me! But to leave My Lord, oh heaven! What would become of him? He would have no one to serve him... This peach is a little pecked; it is no worse for it, even though the birds have touched it.
ARIETTE.
The fruit that the bird decides upon,
Is always the best;
The flower where the bee lands,
Has the sweetest scent:
Ah, if my heart, ah, if my heart
Had what it wishes,
It would be the most beautiful flower
Of the garden of love.
Never in this basket
Will all this fruit fit.
How vermilion this peach is!
Happy is he who will bite it.
Ah, if my heart, ah, if my heart
Had what it wishes,
It would be the most beautiful flower
Of the garden of love.
A centered typographical ornament consisting of stylized leaves and floral elements.
