(Young Bride:) The messenger said the campaign was successful |
 |
(Attila:) Yes. The city fell quickly. The new
siege engines worked better than I'd hoped. |
 |
| (Young Bride) I'm glad. |
 |
(Attila:) You're well? |
 |
(Young Bride:) Yes. |
| (Attila:) You were obeyed in my absence? |
(Young Bride:) Yes. |
 |
(Attila:) And my other wives? |
(Young Bride:) Also well my Lord. |
| (Attila:) Good. Where's my son? |
 |
(Young Bride:) You have many sons my Lord of which do you speak? |
 |
(Attila:) The eldest. |
 |
(Young Bride:) You have a dozen wives, twice that many children. And yet all of us taken
together don't pleasure you as much as he does. |
 |
(Attila:) He's my first born. |
 |
| (Young Bride:) And the child of the red-haired woman. |
 |
(Attila:) I hold court this afternoon. In the meantime, I wish to rest. |
 |
(Young Bride:) Attila? I missed you. |
 |
(Attila:) It's good to be back. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
(Announcement:) Attila, King of the Huns. Lord of all lands from the frozen ocean to the
Black
Sea, from the river Rhine to the mountains of the East. |
