To be revenged on thee! or take my life!
The first has failed! my first love's unavenged!
And thus I take my wretched, forfeit life!

Thy-daughter!

GRIMES (to Sir William).

(Dies. Music.) (Sir William utters a cry of horror. Percy looks on the dead body of Grimes. Lester supports Iola, still fainting in centre. Picture. Curtain falls.
