| (1, 0) 7 | Will it be long before she comes? |
| (Father) We cannot tell. | |
| (Maiden) And they have gone. | |
| (1, 0) 16 | And will they all come back when they have found the Queen? |
| (Father) No, they will not all come back. | |
| (Father) No, they will not all come back. | |
| (1, 0) 18 | Why did she go away from us? |
| (Father) Men drove her out. | |
| (Father) Men drove her out. | |
| (1, 0) 20 | But I have heard people say that she is very beautiful and that the world is happy when she sits upon her throne. |
| (Mother) Yes, little one, the world is happy. | |
| (Mother) Yes, little one, the world is happy. | |
| (1, 0) 22 | I do not remember the Queen upon her throne. |
| (1, 0) 23 | What was it like when the world was happy? |
| (Father) My son worked with me. | |
| (1, 0) 34 | And what do you remember from the time when the world was happy? |
| (Mother) I remember the gladness of my home and the joy in all my care. | |
| (Mother) I remember their steps drawing near the door, and how, when they were sad of heart, I had from God the old, old gift of comfort. | |
| (1, 0) 38 | And, in that time, you did not sit quiet by the fire, trying to hide that you were crying? |
| (Mother) No, little one. | |
| (1, 0) 43 | And you were happy, too? |
| (Maiden) Yes, little one. | |
| (Maiden) It has been bitter for the lovers, and many such as I have nothing now but memory. | |
| (1, 0) 54 | It is a great pity that men drove the Queen away! |
| (1, 0) 55 | Why did they do it? |
| (1, 0) 56 | I have heard that men are good and wise. |
| (Father) No, little one; they only wish to be. | |
| (Man of Doubt) Yes; once again the people dream. | |
| (1, 0) 86 | Don't dreams come true? |
| (Mother) Hark! | |
| (Maiden) And they are glad! | |
| (1, 0) 108 | Oh, yes! |
| (1, 0) 109 | So glad! |
| (1, 0) 110 | I didn't know that men and women could be so very happy. |
| (Father) Tell me. | |
| (Father) O God, we thank Thee now; we who build the world a temple to Thy plan! | |
| (1, 0) 122 | O God, the little children thank Thee! |
| (Father) Who walks beside the Queen? | |
| (Maiden) Someone who leads her by the hand towards the throne. | |
| (1, 0) 125 | Poor man! |
| (1, 0) 126 | He looks so tired! |
| (Mother) Who is it leads her by the hand towards her throne? | |
| (Maiden) O lover of some lonely maid, what shall we give, whose loneliness is done? | |
| (1, 0) 175 | You have made all the people glad. |
| (1, 0) 176 | Please—will you let me kiss you? |
