Glory of the Morning: They can learn?
The Chevalier: Oak Leaf is already more than half a white girl; and Red Wing is half white in blood, if not in manners—ca ira.
Glory of the Morning (Beginning to realize): No, no. They are mine!
The Chevalier (Reaching out his arms to take them): No.
Glory of the Morning: They are mine! They are mine!
The Chevalier: The Great King will give them presents.
Glory of the Morning: No, no!
