SCENE II

TIME: _a half-hour later_.
PLACE: _the cave_.

* * * * *

ELIZA.
THE FAIRY.

* * * * *

[ELIZA _is seen at entrance of cave. She stops; is afraid to enter._]

ELIZA. I am afraid to enter! It is so dark--I know not what is within! It
may be the den of some wild animal.

(_Listening._)

Not a sound do I hear! But wild animals are cunning. They know how to lie
as still as death and then to leap quickly.

(_Pause._)

Well, be it so. I will enter, for I must save my
brothers.
