6. CHORUS.

[THROUGH the forest cautious stealing]

MAURICE, HERMAN, AND HUNTERS.
THROUGH the forest cautious stealing,
Friends, explore each vale and glen:
Yonder shades the boar concealing,
Rouse him from his secret den!
Mark his eyes with fury flashing!
Now his tusks revengeful gnashing,
Wounded, on our band he rushes,
While his blood in torrents gushes!
Now his life is fast retreating;
Now I hear his dying roar;
While, the hunters' shouts repeating,
Echo tells he breathes no more.
