She waves her wand. Second Entry.
A shepherd, and shepherdess.
They run into each others arms.
She.
If to meet is all this pleasure,
Sure, to part was killing pain!

Both.
Yes, to part was killing pain!

He.
If 'twas grief to lose our treasure,

Crowns the maid—

And crowns her swain.

Both.
Crowns the happy maid and swain!
