Lyrics:

[Soul]

I see not those false spirits; shall I see
My dearest Master, when I reach His throne?

[Angel]

Yes --- for one moment thou shalt see thy Lord.

One moment; but thou knowest not, my child,
What thou dost ask; that sight of the Most Fair
Will gladden thee, but it will pierce thee too.

[Soul]

Thou speakest darkly, Angel! and an awe
Falls on me, and a fear lest I be rash.
