She meets Gerald, an English Army officer, in the grounds of the temple. To trespass upon these grounds means death for the infidel. These two fall in love, and when Nilakantha hears of it, he decrees that the Englishman must die. Not

knowing his name, or where to find him, he attends the village bazaar festival in disguise, and has Lakme sing the Bell Song. His cunning is rewarded, for Gerald reveals himself, and Nilakantha instantly Stabs him. Lakme manages to get him away to her jungle retreat, where she nurses him and saves his life. A brother officer, Frederick, visits him, reminds him of his duty, and tells him that his regiment is ordered away. Hearing the sound of the bugle calling his regiment to ‘Boot and Saddle," Gerald realises that he must go. Lakme is disconsolate. She knows that his love for his country is stronger than his love for her, and, plucking a poisonous blossom, she presses the deadly bloom to her lips, and dies in Gerald arms, 10.20 Close of normal programme, During the war, the station will be on the® air until 12 midnight.
