King: Why was he hidden? That is strange!
Princess: He is a Hebrew boy, O father.
King: A Hebrew boy! Did I not command that every Hebrew boy should be killed?
Princess: I must take the blame; I had his life spared. Will you not let him be brought here?
King: No, I will not! No Hebrew boy shall be brought here!
Princess: If you would only see him, he is so beautiful, you would love him as I do. He is without; permit me to show him to you.
King: Bring him in.

Princess: This is my son. Is he not a wonderful boy?
King: He is fair to look upon, but yet he is a Hebrew.
