And then the brave Vagabond shows her the piece cut from her veil, exactly fitting the deficiency: "Fairest princess, thou wast in grave danger." And the pure maid is happy to find such a brave heart. Already they embrace--ah, happy Vagabond! Already the trumpets sound. Already the prize is won. Already. Already. Already...
