Enrique. Ah! She likewise practises healing?

Farez. Free of charge! Her father left her great wealth and the knowledge of his art. Those of her own race are not the only ones who have sought her aid. (Addressing the peasants) More than one Christian who has secretly begged gold and medicines from her now shows his ingratitude by accusing her of causing hail to fall upon the fields. (The peasants protest.)

Enrique. (Silencing them) That is enough! (To Ramiro) Keep the muleteer. Release the others. (Exclamations of joy.)

The Peasants. Ah, thanks! your lordship! God will reward you! Long live His Excellency!

Arias. (Pushing them along) Go! Go! Disperse without noise! (They leave from both sides of the scene.)

Scene Four

Enrique, Ramiro, Arias, Farez, later Zoraya

Enrique. (To Farez, rising) You say that she resides near here?

Farez. (Pointing to the left, below) On this hillside—a white house, half way up the slope, with beautiful gardens and a terrace mirrored in the waters of the Tagus.

Enrique. You may conduct me there. (To the archers and valets) Go! (They go out.)
