ORPHEUS. Who cares if the words make sense! Glue your ear to them. Listen to their mystery. “Eurydice shall return”... now that’b be quite ordinary. But Lady Eurydice shall return...” Shall return. Can’t you hear the vibrations in that future tense? And the twist -- “from the underworld.” Why, you should be flattered that it’s you I’m talking about.
