Out at the door! 'Tis a disgrace For this degraded girl to lift Her eyes to such a lofty place

ESMERALDA

Oh, defend me! Help! Defend ypsy, Stands defenseless now before thee!

PHOEBUS

I love her, and I love but her

Yes! her defender I will be

I'll fight for her, andarm Will bear my heart out valiantly

If some one must be her protector, I as are mine, and who insults her Must answer for it on the spot

ALL

What! She is what he loves! Indeed!

Away froypsy he prefers to us; With loving words he calms her fear

Hush!+ silence! Both of you be still!

No further words of insolence

[_To Phoebus_] Froance!

[_To Esmeralda_] From thee, too much iypsy, who is uests of Madaers toward the door_
