Eurydice has een bitten hy a serpent and is ead. Her husband, Orphems, sadly weeps at the tomb. The God of Love takes pity on Orpheus and tells him that he may descend into Hades and seck the shade of Eurydice in Pluto’s dark kingdom, but there is one « .dition. Orpheus, if he would bring his bride back to the upper regions again, must return to earth without looking at her face.. Orpheus, with his lute, wins admission through the gates of Hades and in the Valley of the Blest he finds Eurydice. He prays her to: follow him, but he never "looks at her face. She follows him out of the valley, and Orpheus still leads her upwards, never turning his face. In a cave, almost in sight of the land of the living, she cries out and weeps because Orpheus is so indifferent to her. At last he can resist no Jonger, and turning, gazes on the face of his beloved, who sinks lifeless to the ground. OrpPheus is about to kill himself when the God of Love, who’ has watched the scene, appears, and touched by Orpheus’s suffering, waves his wand and brings Eurydice to life again. 41. 0 LONDON NEWS 11.20 CLOSE DOWN
