Ruahmah is my name, a captive maid,

The daughter of a prince in Israel,--

Where once, in olden days, I saw my lord

Ride through our highlands, when Samaria

Was allied with Damascus to defeat

Asshur, our common foe.

NAAMAN:

O glorious days,

Crowded with life! And thou rememberest them?

RUAHMAH:
