Text Appearing Before Image:
he famous Incantation, in which he calls upon night andthe flowers to aid him in his diabolical plot against the soul of Marguerite. Invocation Mephistopheles (Oh Night, Draw Thy Curtain!) By Marcel Journet, Bass (In French) 64119 10-inch, $1.00 Stretching out his arms, the Evil One invokes the powers of Night, that its mysteriousscents and seductive charms may aid him in his work of the lovers undoing. In this statelypassage he drops for a time the satirical vein of the previous quartet, and gives the invo-cation with befitting solemnity and grandeur. Mephistopheles:It was high time—See, neath the balmy linden, Our lovers devoted approaching;Tis well! Retter leave them alone,With the flowrs and the moon. 0 night! draw around them thy curtain!Let naught waken alarm, or misgivings ever!Ye flowers, aid the enchanting charm,Her senses to bewilder; till she knows notWhether she be not already in Heaven! This is one of the most impressive passages in the whole part of Mephistopheles. 134
