He sinks into the chair at desk, and buries his face in his arms. Slowly the light dims to darkness .

At back, the stage is transformed into a TABLEAU OF KAUVAR'S DREAM OF ANARCHY.

Mysterious music accompanies the Dream, which consists of a tableau of the guillotine in the Place de la Revolution, in Paris, by moonlight .

Here is seen the scaffold, with its ghastly paraphernalia, surrounded by ferocious SANS CULOTTES, and GENS D'ARMES. Amidst them is an old hag .

The death-cart, with its load of victims, is seen in the foreground — the entrance to the garden with the palace of the Tuilleries in the background .

The HEADSMAN stands ready, near the knife of the guillotine

From the death-cart DIANE glides on and slowly goes up the scaffold steps .

As she reaches the top, she is seized roughly by the HEADSMAN.

At this moment PAUL starts with a cry of agony from his chair — and at his shriek, the whole Tableau of the Dream instantly disappears .
