SCENE V

(The old Master is crying out for Hermes in painful agony.)

THE MASTER

Cloted blood in my head,

Is waiting for the night by my side.

THE MASTER AND HIS DAIMONS

Come see me now!

HERMES

(Enters the room.)

THE MASTER

(Reaching out.)

Hermes!

(To Hermes.)

Pripazi to čine zlodusi da bi tobom vladali.

Pokori se ocu svom i budi poslušni sin.

THE MASTER AND HIS DAIMONS

Save yourself! Behold! They’re telling great lies.

THE MASTER

You are right, by my side.

Future is waiting. You’re prepared.

HERMES' DEMENTED PUPIL

La-la-la...

(Poisons the Master.)
