Adventures of Don Juan Page #9

Strange.

Once to have heard those words

would have brought me complete happiness.

Now they bring only pain.

You're the queen. Without you,

the king would rule badly.

The people would suffer.

Your exile would be bitter.

Bitter?

Any more bitter than being married to a man

who is estranged to me?

More bitter than having you

go out of my life forever?

Once I promised you to devote myself

to the welfare of our country.

Would you take away the one ruler

who could bring her happiness?

I asked you that when I was queen.

I am no longer.

You are. You always will be.

I shall be the only one...

...who knew that for just a little while

there was no queen.

- Just ahead lies the road to Lisbon.

- Yes.

There's a great

new university there, Leporello.

I've decided to devote myself

to some serious study.

Perhaps write my memoirs.

Well, it will be a change, anyway.

At long last, lead the peaceful calm

of an academic life.

No more romance.

No more the idle search for beauty.

No more, no more...

Your pardon, seor.

Is this the road to Barcelona?

- It is, seorita.

- Thank you so very much.

- Adios.

- Adios.

Juan.

No more romance, eh?

My dear friend, there's a little bit

of Don Juan in every man.

But since I am Don Juan,

there must be more of it in me.
