The opening

SCENE I.

A Saloon in FIESCO’S House. The distant sound of dancing and music is heard.

LEONORA, masked, and attended by ROSA and ARABELLA, enters hastily.

LEONORA (tears off her mask). No more! Not another word! ’Tis as clear as day! (Throwing herself in a chair.) This quite overcomes me——

ARABELLA. My lady!

The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
