Her brother, furthermore, desired Lucia to marry Lord Arthur Bucklaw. as such a union would be beneficial financially to Ashton. Lucia, however, prefers the poor Ravenswood and declares her love for him. While absent on a journey. Sir Edgar dispatches many-a proof of his fidelity to Lucia; they " are, however, intercepted by her brother. Lucia is still true to her love. Finally, Ashton forges a paper telling of the unfaithfulness of Ravenswood. Lucia, driven almost to madness, at length consents to become the bride of Bucklaw. The marriage takes place, but amid the festivities of the guests, after the newly wedded pair retired, groans are heard proceeding from the nuptial chamber. Lord Bucklaw is discovered, bleeding to death. The storm of remorse has proved too much for Lucia who, in wild mania, brandishes the sword of her husband whom she has slain. Soon her senses return, but only as life departs. The terrible event precipitates her death, and wakes remorse in the heart of Lord Henry Ashton. Sir Edgar returns to take a last look upon her whom he loved, and finds that she has been faithful unto death.

He summons to his aid the Spirit of Evil, who appears to him under the form of Mephistopheles. Through the supernatural power of the latter, Faust is restored to youth, endowed with personal beauty and luxurious garb. Mephistopheles, in a vision, reveals to him the village maid. Marguerite, with whom the student falls in love. Marguerite, noted for her loveliness, has been left by her soldier brother, Valentine, under the care of Dame Martha, a worthy but not very vigilant personage. The maiden at first rejects the stranger's advances, but through the intervention of Mephistopheles, urges his suit, and Marguerite's resistance is at length overcome. Valentine, on returning from the wars, learns what has occurred. He challenges his sister's betrayer, but, through the intervention of Mephistopheles, he is killed in the duel. Marguerite, horror-stricken at the calamity of which she is the cause, gives way to despair. Her reason becomes affected, and in a frenzy she kills her infant. She is thrown into prison, and Faust, aided by Mephistopheles, obtains access to the cell in which she is confined. They both eagerly urge her to fly, but Marguerite, in whom holier feelings have obtained the ascendent, spurns their proffered aid and expires. Mephistopheles is triumphant at the apparent success of his schemes to destroy a human soul, but a chorus of heavenly voices is heard proclaiming that there is pardon for the repentant sinner, and the Evil One, foiled and overcome, crouches in terror as the spirit of Marguerite is borne to heaven by ministering angels.

STORY OF "IL TROVATORE" Count de Luna had two sons. The younger was supposed to have been bewitched by a gypsy woman, who was therefore burned alive. Azucena, the latter's daughter, swore vengeance. She succeeded in kidnaping the younger son of the old Count, because of her mother's fate. With him she repaired to the stake at which her mother's ashes were still to be seen. By mistake Azucena threw her own babe into the flames instead of the stolen child. She fled to her tribe, bearing the boy with her. He grew to superb manhood, and was known as Manrico the Troubadour. In the meantime the Count had died. His elder son succeeded to the title. The new Count was in love with Duchess Lenora.

Mistaking the Count for his unknown brother, she hastens to join him. Manrico has seen and is jealous. He and the Count duel. Manrico is not injured. He joins the army and leaves for the wars, is wounded, and found on the battlefield by Azucena. She removes him to her mountain home and there restores him to health. ACTS II AND III—He learns that Duchess Lenora, believing him dead, is about to enter a convent.

Hastening to rescue her he- is repulsed and taken prisoner. On the eve before the day set for the execution of mother and son, Lenora suddenly appears before de Luna, offering her hand in marriage in exchange for the life of Manrico. The Count agrees. ACT IV—Lenora is permitted to enter the prison to release Manrico. On her way, however, she takes poison. Manrico, who doubts Lenora, now sees her faithfulness. De Luna enters, takes in the situation at a glance, and orders that Manrico be killed. During the execution the Count drags Azucena to the window that she may behold the fate of her son.
