Who were the trusty watchers!—thou forget?
Like me, who do forget that Anael bade ...
Dja. [Aside.] Ay, Anael, Anael—is that said at last?
Louder than all, that would be said, I knew!
What does abjuring mean, confessing mean,
To the people? Till that woman crossed my path,
On went I, solely for my people's sake:
I saw her, and I then first saw myself,
And slackened pace: "If I should prove indeed
Hakeem—with Anael by!"
