“Ah, I laugh to see myself so beautiful in this mirror, is it you, Marguerite, is it you?
Marguerite, Faust

Ah! Let’s complete the metamorphosis: I am late, yet in trying on the bracelet and the necklace. God! It’s like a hand which is placed on my arm!

Ah, I laugh to see myself so beautiful in this mirror.”
