Excerpt from Queen Mariamne
Jericho: the garden of the royal pleasure-house. In front of bathing-tank, above it terraces masked by balm-shrubs. A voice is heard calling:
Mariamne! Mariamne!
Can she have slipped down from the parapet?
(Herod is seen through the branches.
Herod. Or she crept to the smooth tanks to breathe
The air of the water?
No, the bathing-tanks
Are guarded for some sport,
(Cries and laughter of unseen swimmers.
And there is congregation on the shores
If she could know, if she could but conceive!
