SOLO AND GLEE.
Rosalia, Altaverde, and Banditti.
Ros.
Yes, yes, yes:
I'll gently touch the blythe Guitar,
Ting a ting a ting, right warily!
Our gallant Band anear and far,
Will hail their Minstrel chearily!
Ting a ting tang, ting a ting tang!
For Beauty's rescue none will aid deny,
And hark! softly, row de dow, dow,
Their ready drums reply!
Ting a ting tang! none will aid deny.
All.
Row de dow dow—our ready drums reply.
(Their Drums without softly answer the Guitar, and the Banditti gradually appear.)
Cho.
Row de dow, &c.
(Rinaldo motions silence.)
Solo. Ros.
Hush—silence has our Chief decreed!
Cease, cease to beat the ready, ready drum,
To the dying Breeze with noiseless tread,
Whisper the watchword, mum—mum—mum!
They gently cross the draw-bridge, and enter the
Castle.
Rosalia, Altaverde, and Banditti.
