THE HAVRE HARBOR ACT III Doubk-Fawd Record—See page 288. 287 VICTROLA BOOK OF THE OPERA — MANON LESCAUT SCENE- ACT III The Harbor at Havre Manon has been banished from France, and is nowembarking on the ship for the French colony in Louisiana.Des Grieux, unable to secure her release, entreats the offi-cers to permit him to go on board. The captain, touchedby the grief of the unhappy lovers, consents, and with acry of joy Des Grieux embarks just as the ship is sailing. ACT IV SCENE—A Desolate Spot in Louisiana This act is merely a long duet in which the sad, butvery human, tragedy is ended. The music portrays thefailing strength of Manon, the despair of Des Grieux whenhe is powerless to aid her, the last farewell of the lovers,and the bitter grief of the unhappy young man whenManon dies. As she expires, unable to bear more, hefalls senseless on her body.
