The Revolution breaks out and several years late Chenier, who has denounced Robespierre, is a hunted man in Paris. Rucher, one of his friends, has.secured a passport out of the country. for him, and is urging Chenier to fly at once, when Madaleine enters the cafe and begs Chenier to aidéher against the spies who are dogging her. Chenier defends her against Gerard, whom he wounds, and the lovers escape. Later Chenier is captured and brought before the Revolutionary Tribunal. Madaleine pleads for her lover, finally promising to give herself to Gerard if Chenier is spared. Gerard agrees, and at the trial declares that the indictment against Chenier is false, but the mob, thirsting for blood, | demands the poet’s death. Late that night. Madaleine, having bribed the gaoler to allow her to exchange places with a woman prisoner, enters the prison with Gerard and greets her lover. If she cannot live for her lover she can at least die with him, apd together they go to the scaffold,
