Plun Monologue from Martha; or, The Fair at Richmond

From Martha; or, The Fair at Richmond by Friedrich von[Composer] Flotow

Poor Lionel! He seems quite lost to me! He avoids me, seeks solitude, or if he does approach his fellow men he utterly ignores their presence, as now. (NANCY: Does he seem to have no moments when he knows you?) Not so far. Ever since the Queen recognized the ring I gave her and restored him to his rightful place and name as Earl of Derby he seems to think he is no more himself. All the past is wiped away from his thought and he wanders about in a daze or dream. (LADY H: And I am the one who is to blame!) Yes--and no. Nancy here did by me much what you did by Lionel, but it did not drive me crazy. So after all it is partly Lionel's strange nature that is to blame. He was always a queer lad, sensitive to a fault.
