They have bound my eyes with bands; they have tied my hands with cords.
ALLADINE.
They have tied my hands with cords; they have bound my eyes with bands…. I think my hands are bleeding….
PALOMIDES.
Wait. To-day I bless my strength…. I feel the knots beginning to give way…. One struggle more, and let my fists burst! One struggle more! I have my hands! [Tearing away the bandage.] And my eyes!…
ALLADINE.
You see now?
PALOMIDES.
Yes.
