Forget! anointing! peril! what are they all!

Michal?—for me you have done this, for me?

[She stands immovable.]

I am swung with joy, as palms of Abila!

[Goes to her.]

A princess, you, and the veins of you live warm

With sympathy and love unto your father,

Yet you have shielded me?

MICHAL

You are the anointed?
