stirred this up? (#87) Where now is my wisdom against his bewilderment? (#87) Where are my runes against this riddle? (#87) (#64?) Ah, (#5) sorrow, (#5) sorrow! (#5) Woe! (#5) Ah, woe! (#134) All my wisdom I gave to him: (#150) (#150 Varis) In his power he holds the maid, in his bonds he holds the booty which, sorrowing for her shame, (#150?) the rich man exultantly gave away. (#164 Vari; #21?) (#170a/#164>>) Who’ll offer me now the sword with which to sever those bonds?
Hagen: (Drawing closer to Bruennhilde: #173 [on bassoon?]) Have trust in me, deserted wife! Whoever betrayed you, I shall avenge it.
Bruennhilde: (Looking around weakly: #173?) On whom?
Hagen: (#175 Fragment) On Siegfried, who deceived you.
Bruennhilde: (#173 Fragment) On Siegfried? … You? (smiling bitterly: #150 Vari; #143 Hint or #149?) A single glance from his flashing eye – (#154) which, even through his false disguise [“Luegengestalt”] (#149) brightly lighted upon me, (#103) would make your greatest courage quail! (#173)
Hagen: (#173) Would not his false oath mark him out for my spear?
Bruennhilde: [[ (#@: D or E?) Bruennhilde’s Protection of Siegfried From the Unhealing Wound of Foresight Motif: #15 Vari/#150? ]]; #173?) Oaths true or false – an idle concern! (#92) ([[ (#@: D or E?) Bruennhilde’s Protection of Siegfried From the Unhealing Wound of Foresight: #15 Vari >>;#150? ]]; #13?) Seek stronger means to arm your spear (#? [sounds like a fragment of (#@: D)]) if you’d best the strongest of men. (#167)
Hagen: (#? [A Loge-related harmony???!!!]) How well do I know his conquering strength, (#167?) how hard it would be to kill him in battle: (#33a Vari >> [a variant of #33a associated with the Norns?]) so whisper me sound advice and say how the hero may yield to my might.
Bruennhilde: (#64 &/or #63? [possible reference to the vocal line of Siegmund’s thanks to Sieglinde for the drink she gave him: “Cooling comfort came from the spring”?]) O rank ingratitude! Shameful reward! (#23 or #139? [or other music associated in S.3.3 with Siegfried reaching the crest of Bruennhilde’s Rock during the transition S.3.2-3?]) [[ (#@: D or E?) Definitive Motif of Bruennhilde’s Protection of Siegfried From the Unhealing Wound of Foresight: #150 Vari/#15 Vari ]] Not a single art [“Kunst”] was known to me (#? – [This may be very important to know!!!!!]) that did not help to keep his body safe! (#141 Vari >>; #? [perhaps referencing something Siegfried sang to the Woodbird in S.2.3?]) Unknown to him, he was tamed by my magic (#92?) spells (#141?; #143? [or perhaps some other music associated in S.3.3 with Bruennhilde’s request that Siegfried not destroy her by forcing his love on her, or associated in V.3.1 with Bruennhilde’s announcement that Sieglinde was carrying the greatest hero in her
