Six months later Golaud writes to his brother Pelleas announcing his marriage to Melisande. When Melisande and Pelleas eventually meet they are attracted to each other and Pelleas takes Melisande to a fountain in the forest where she accidentally drops her betrothal ring into the well. Her husband is very distressed by the loss of the ring, which Melisande says she has lost in the sands by the sea. A love scene follows at Melisande’s chamber window which is interrupted by Golaud, who warns his brother not to trifle with Melisande as she is in delicate health, Now that his suspicions of Pelleas are aroused, Golaud sets his little son by a former marriage to act as spy. Once again the pair meet by the fountain, where Golaud discovers them and slays his brother. The last act is in Melisande’s. bed chamber, where after the birth of her child, she lies dying, protesting that her love for Pelleas was absolutely innocent. 10.50 Close of normal programme
