No. 5: DUET (Casilda & Luiz)
"There was a time"

| Casilda. |
| Dead as the last year's leaves — As gathered flowers — ah, woe is me! Dead as the garnered sheaves, That love of ours — ah, woe is me! Born but to fade and die When hope was high, Dead and as far away As yesterday! — ah, woe is me! |
| Both. |
| Oh, bury, bury — let the grave close o'er The days that were — that never will be more! Oh, bury, bury love that all condemn, And let the whirlwind mourn its requiem, Its requiem, its requiem! |
