ENRIQUE. Yes!
ZORAYA. (In his arms) Then! Come with me?
ENRIQUE. (Thrilled) To the home of your kindred?
ZORAYA. They will receive you as a brother!
ENRIQUE. Me? A Spaniard--an enemy?
ZORAYA. As my lover!
ENRIQUE. With the rebels, me, a soldier?--Disclaim my king?
ZORAYA. A tyrant!
ENRIQUE. My God?
ZORAYA. He is for every one.
ENRIQUE. And an exile--forever an exile from my country?
ZORAYA. My own country is the country where we may love.
ENRIQUE. No, do not say so! It is a crime to listen to your words.
ZORAYA. My adored Enrique!
ENRIQUE. Deserter! renegade! perjurer. Traitor to all my duties for
all time! Never! even for you! Never! Never!
ZORAYA. Stay then, coward, who has caused me to lose everything!
ENRIQUE. Zoraya!
ZORAYA. Go--return to your wife!
[She opens the street door quickly to go out and recoils on seeing
Cardenos standing motionless on the threshold.]
