DIE FLEDERMAUS ACT ONE A summer evening. The living room of Gábriel von Eisenstein'* house at Baden, near Vienna. Doors centre back and stage left. Windnv: at stage right. Alfréd sings Serenade off stage. Alfréd (behind the scene): Lőve no longer fly from me O'er the ocean roaming. I shall watch and sigh for thee Till thy wings are homing. (Alfréd appears at. windoto and sits on sill playing guitar.) All forlorn I grieve apart, Truant love, my darling. Turn again and seek my heart, Rosalinda darling. Turn again and seek my heart, Rosalinda darling. (.Double doors open and Alfréd disappears. Adele enters with an oprn letter in her hand.) Adele:Well, I never! It's a letter from my sister on the stage! "You're invited to a villa, where the waltz is all the rage. Prin.ce Orlofsky is giving a ball, Keeps open house tonight, and asks us all. Do your best to beg or borrow The very smartest evening gown, the very smartest evening gown, Then you'll be a lady till tomorrow! 1 '11 present you on your entry. Your acquaintance will be wider. If you want to meet the gentry, Trust your loving sister Ida!" (Leaves envelope on table.) Very nice of her to write, And I'd adore to go tonight; But the awkward question now Is nothing more nor les than "How!" I wonder how! Ah!
