Hannah Kennedy Monologue from Mary Stuart: A Tragedy

From Mary Stuart: A Tragedy by Friedrich Schiller

female · dark · 47 sec

She spent the last remainder of the night In prayer, and from her dearest friends she took Her last farewell in writing: then she wrote Her will (1) with her own hand. She now enjoys A moment of repose, the latest slumber Refreshes her weak spirits. (MELVIL: Who attends her?) None but her women and physician Burgoyn: You seem to look around you with surprise; Your eyes appear to ask me what should mean This show of splendor in the house of death. Oh, sir, while yet we lived we suffered want; But at our death plenty returns to us.
