Gunther, in pity for the dying man,leans over him and Seigfried faintly says : Siegfried: Briinnhilde! Heavenly bride!— Look up! Open thine eyelids! What hath sunk thee once more in sleep? Who drowns thee in slumber so drear? The wakner came, his kiss awoke;— Again now the brides bonds he has broken;- Enchant him Briinnhildes charms! Ah! now forever open her eyelids! Ah! and what odrous breeze is her breath! Thrice blessed ending— Thrill that dismays not— Briinnhilde beckons to me! (He dies.) 188 Text Appearing After Image: FERD.
