[Down below, we see the PHANTOM and CHRISTINE in the boat, crossing the underground lair]
[PHANTOM]
Down once more to the dungeon of my black despair!
Down we plunge to the prison of my mind!
Down that path into darkness, deep as hell!
[He rounds on her, bitterly]
Why, you ask, was I bound and chained
In this cold and dismal place?
Not for any mortal sin
But the wickedness of my abhorrent face!
[MOB (offstage)]
Track down this murderer!
He must be found!
[PHANTOM]
Hounded out by everyone!
Met with hatred everywhere!
No kind word from anyone!
No compassion anywhere!
Christine, Christine ...
Why, why...?
