ACT I SCENE I—A Square in Frankfort—Easter SundayThe aged philosopher, Faust, and his pupil Wagner,while mingling with the crowd, observe a grey Friar whoseems to be shadowing their movements. Faust is alarmedand says to Wagner: Faust: Observe him closely.Wagner: Some lowly Friar, passes. Faust: Look more closely. He moves slowly on in lesseningcircles; and with each spiral, comes ever nearer and nearer. Oh! as I gaze, I see his footprintsmarked in fire!Wagner: No, master, tis some idle fancy. Tis a grey friar, and not a specter. Come hence, goodmaster. As they leave the square, followed by the Friar, the scene changes to Fausts laboratory. SCENE II— The Studio of Faust.

Text Appearing After Image:
Dai campi, dai prati (From the GreenFields) Alberto Amadi, Tenor (Double-Faced—see p. 314) (In Italian) 63313 10-inch, $0.75 He speaks of his deep contentment, his love for Godand his fellow man. Faust: From the meadows, from the valleys, which He bathed in moonlight,And where paths silent sleep, I come return-ing; my soul rilledWith calmness, mysterious and deep,The passions, the heart rudely trying,In quiet oblivion are lying; My spirit knows only its love for its fellows;Its love for its God! The Friar appears, and throwing off his disguise, revealshimself as the Devil, offering to be Fausts servant if he willaccompany him. What is the price? asks the philosopher.Up here I will obey thee, says Mefistofele, but belowour places will be reversed. Faust says he cares nothingfor the future, and if Mefistofele can give him but one hourof happiness, for that one hour he would sell his soul. Thebargain is made and they set forth on their adventures. FARRAR AND MARTIN IN ACT SCENE- Faust
