Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lohengrin: A Romantic Opera in Three Acts Act 1i. - Telramund and Ortrud (his wife) are watching outside the Palace, which resounds with mirth and revelry; they are determined yet to compass theruin of Elsa and Lohengrin, and be reinstated in their former rank. Elsa appears on the balcony, and to her Ortrud makes a piteous appeal, which so effectually moves Elsa to compassion, that she promises to obtain the reprieve of Telramund's sentence. She offers to shelter Ortrud for the night, who amid false protestations of gratitude, affects concern for the uncertainty of Elsa's future happiness, and contrives to insinuate the first germs of suspicion in Elsa's mind. They enter the abode of Elsa. The retainers and vassals assemble to form the bridal procession. Ortrud.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lohengrin: Romantic Opera, in Three Acts Henry I, surnamed "The Fowler," King of Germany, has arrived at Antwerp for the purpose of raising an army with which to oppose the Hungarians, who are about to invade his dominions. At the time of the King's visit, Brabant is in a state of great excitement, owing to a report that the youthful Godfrey has been murdered by his sister Elsa. Denouncing Elsa, Telramund, the husband of Ortrud, daughter of the Prince of Friesland, claims his right to the Dukedom of Brabant, and offers to meet in mortal combat anyone ready to champion the cause of Elsa. Elsa calmly announces her innocence, but the King is compelled to allow the trial by battle. The Herald proclaims" Who will do battle here for life or death for Elsa of Brabant?" and the four trumpeters sound. At first there is no response, and the anxiety of Elsa's many sympathizers is intense. Elsa kneels in prayer when suddenly in the distance appears a boat drawn by a white swan; in the boat stands a knight clad in silver armor. The stranger steps ashore and after dismissing the swan, offers his service for the defence of Elsa upon the condition that she accept him as husband without ever inquiring his name or place of origin. Elsa gratefully accepts; a fierce battle then ensues between Telramund and the stranger knight, in which the former is defeated and deprived of the title he coveted, the just claims of innocence of Elsa being acknowledged by all as proved. Telramund and Ortrud, disgraced, endeavour to form some plot by which their fortunes may be retrieved. Ortrud approaches Elsa with assumed humility and then poisons her mind by suggesting the wisdom of inquiring the reason of the mystery attending her champion's name. When the wedding procession is about to enter the church, both Telramund and Ortrud appear on the steps, and Tellramund declares to the people that his defeat was only accomplished by witchcraft. However the interruption docs not avail and the wedding ceremony is accomplished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
