Isolde is distraught, her fragmented line accompanied by various themes including the opening of ex.10, subsequently to form the basis of the Liebestod.

On the long journey, Tristan and Isolde realize their passion for each other and attempt suicide by drinking what they believe to be a death potion; however, Isolde's maid, not willing to help Isolde die substitutes a love potion, causing them to fall even more deeply in love.
Instead Isolde is enraged by the knight Tristan, whom she sees standing on the afterdeck, avoiding her: by delivering her to his uncle, he shows no regard for her feelings.
It was the forces of daylight, Isolde says, that caused Tristan to behave conventionally and bring her from Ireland; the potion, the power of love, has released them from this delusion.

 ISOLDE Facility Description
The basic principle of ISOLDE is that radioactive nuclides are produced in spallation, fission or fragmentation reactions with a thick target placed in the external proton beam of 1 GeV.
As shown in the ISOLDE layout the protons from the PSB are delivered to the ISOLDE target zones via an underground transfer line, which serves two different isotope separators, one with its target position situated in a straight extension of the beam line and a second one after a bend of 400 mrad.
ISOLDE's target area has always been one corner of CERN where special attention to safety was necessary.

 Jane Eaglen - Tristan & Isolde - Seattle 1998 - Newspaper Reviews
Eaglen's soprano is voluminous, wide ranging, and radiant; she can fling out a furious or an ecstatic high B or C, yet envelop many phrases in the middle and low registers with a womanly warmth that was not part of the armory of her most celebrated immediate predecessor, Birgit Nilsson.
Eaglen's Seattle Isolde was (and continues to be, I hope) one of the great performances of this role.
Isolde is seldom absent from center stage during the high-octane opera's nearly five hours' running time, but Eaglen's energy, intensity and volume never flagged.

 Review: Tristan & Isolde
It is believed that the story of Tristan and Isolde may be the inspiration for that of Lancelot and Guinevere and, at least as presented in Reynolds' version of the story (penned by Dean Georgaris), the Arthurian elements come to the fore.
That's not to say Tristan and Isolde's sad story doesn't contain its share of contrivances, but they aren't as obvious as they would be in a more clumsily constructed film.
Isolde is beautiful, but she's also wet and/or grimy a lot of the time, and the places where lords live aren't full-service facilities.
