THE GARDEN OF EROS.

THE DOVE 
 
Would you lend me your red star ? 
 
THE VULTURE 
 
With the greatest pleasure, pigeon ! 
 
THE DOVE 
 
I’ll be off, then. 
 
THE LAMB 
 
So will I. 
 
THE VULTURE 
 
I shall know where I can find you. 
 
THE LAMB 
 
Would you had a moment’s patience ! 
I had a much better scheme 
— One involving pigeon-pie ! 
 
THE VULTURE 
 
Butch !  be off with you.  I’ll hop 
Up again to the tree-top. 
Yaugh Waugh !  That’s me ! 
Always at the top of the tree ! 
 
(They depart separately, yet together.  The old Philosopher wakes).
