In this scene Gretchen is alone at her spinning wheel. The song she is singing reflects her state of mind. Gretchen's innocence is gone, the peace she knew before Faust has diminished. "My heart's heavy, My peace is gone"(15.3201-3202). Gretchen is awaiting Faust to return-"Him, only him, I'm looking for"(15.3206-3207). In her turmoil she still pines for him. | |||
