Fkdalma.
I only owe A drtughtei'B debt ; I was not born a slave.
Zaroa.
No, not a slave; but you were born to reigu.
'Tis a compulsion of a higher sort.
Whose fetters are the net invisible That hold all life together. Royal deeds Way make long destinies for multitudes, And you are called to do them. You belong Not to the petty round of circumstance That makes a woman's lot, but to your tribe.
Who trust in me and in my blood with trust That men call blind ; but it is only blind As unyeaned reaso...n is, that grows and stirs Within the womb of superstition.
FfiDALMA.
No!
I belong to him who loves me— whom I love— Who chose me— whom I chose— to whom I pledged A woman's truth. And that is nature too.
Issuing a fresher law than laws of birth.
Zaroa.
Unmake yourself, then, from a Zincala— Unmake yourself from being child of mine!
Take holy water, cross your dark skin white ; Round your proud eyes to foolish kitten looks; Walk minciugly, and smirk, and twitch your robe: Uuniake yourself— doff all the eagle plumes And be a parrot, chained to a ring that slips Upon a Spaniard's thumb, at will of his That you should prattle o'er his words again!
