He attempts to rescue her but this time he is captured. and imprisoned. Leonora seeks Di Luna and offers to give herself to him if he will release Manrico. Di Luna agrees and Leonora is allowed to visit Manrico in his cell with the tidings of his release. Before doing so she takes poison from a ring she wears. She expires in Manrico’s arms. Di Luna is furious and orders Manrico’s instant execution. To add to his revenge he has Azucena dragged in to witness the death throes of her son.
