Why can not a truce be arranged?
King Xerxes:
Truce? That devil, Memucan has beat me twice in a row.

I fear losing you.
King Xerxes:
I gave an oath
[rising to feet, with Esther]
King Xerxes:
to my father.
Queen Esther:
He's the one I fear losing you to. You must dream You'll be gone much in the coming months.
King Xerxes:
Keep this for me.

Queen Esther:
But it is yours.
King Xerxes:
Than be at peace. I always return for what is mine.
[before kissing her]
Prince Memucan:
Will thoust sit there all day, my lord!
