DON (PHANTOM - behind the curtain)
- Go away!
For the trap is set and waits for its . . .
(PASSARINO leaves. (AMINTA) enters. She
takes off her and sits down. Looks about her. No-
one. She starts on an apple. The PHANTOM, as
DON pretending to
be PASSARINO, emerges. He now PASSARINO's
robe, the cowl of hides his face. His first words
her)
DON (PHANTOM)
You have come here in of
your deepest urge, in of
wish, which till now
has been silent, . . .

I have you, that our passions
may and merge, in your mind
you've succumbed to me
dropped all defences completely to me, now you are here with me:
no second thoughts, decided,
. . .

Past the of no return -
no glances:
the games of make
are at an end . . .

the point of "if" or "when" -
no use
thought,
and let the dream . . .

What raging shall flood the soul?
rich desire unlocks its door?
What seduction lies before us . . .?
Past the of no return,
the final threshold, warm,
unspoken secrets will we
the point
of no . . .

(CHRISTINE)
You have me to that moment
words run dry, to that moment
where speech disappears silence,
. . .

I have here, hardly knowing
the why . . .
In my mind, I've
imagined our entwining
and silent -
and now I am here you:
no thoughts, I've decided,
. . .

Past the point of no
no going now:
our has now, at last,
. . .

Past all thought of or wrong -
one final
how should we two wait, before
one . . .?

When will the blood to race
the sleeping bud burst into
When the flames, at last, consume
us . . .?

Past the point of no
the threshold, the bridge
is crossed, so and watch it burn . . .

We've the point of no return . . .
(By now the audience and the POLICE have realized that PIANGI is dead behind the curtain, and it is
the PHANTOM who in his place. CHRISTINE knows it too. As final confirmation, the PHANTOM sings):

Say you'll with me one
love, one . . .
Lead me, save me my solitude . . .
(He takes from his finger a ring and it out to her.
Slowly she takes it and it on her finger.)
Say you me with you,
here you . . .
you go let me go too,
Christine all I ask of . . .
(We never reach the word 'you', for CHRISTINE quite reveals the PHANTOM'S face to the audience. As
the FORCES OF LAW close in on the skull,
the PHANTOM his cloak around her and vanishes. MEG pulls the curtain upstage, revealing PIANGI'S
body garotted, propped against the bed, his head gruesomely to one side. She screams.)
