He is indebted for help in his schemes to his jester, Rigoletto. The courtiers have much reason to hate both Duke and jester, and plan revenge on Rigoletto. The courtiers, resorting to a ruse by which they secure the help of Rigoletto, he, not realising that his own daughter is the victim, abduct Gilda, and carry her off to the palace. Rigoletto rushes. to the palace. His daughter is with the Duke. In distress, he attempts to get into the room. The courtiers, who hate him, and do not altogether understand what is happening, prevent his doing so. At last the daughter, released, dashes out. Rigoletto swears vengeance on the Duke. . The last act of the opera will be presented this evening. The scene is a house in a by-street. Rigoletto engages the assassin, Sparafucile, to kill the first person who comes, whoever this may be. He entices the Duke to the house, using Sparafucile’s sister, Maddelena, as the attraction. Gilda hears, and though wronged by the Duke, makes up her mind to give her life to save him. Putting herself in the Duke’s place, she causes Sparafucile to stab her. Rigoletto enters to receive the Duke’s body in a sack. To his astonishment and horror, he hears the Duke singing in the room above. He opens the sack-and finds-his daughter!) Close down.
