I may say disappointed—to remark
That you’re prepared to fight, and do not show
The signs of terror that I hoped to see.
Zor. (very bravely). Oh, sir, I pray you don’t deceive yourself!
My valiant manner hides an inward fear
That almost robs me of the power of thought!
Chrysal, you’ve grievously insulted me,
My sense of honor forces me to fight!
But I would rather have my hand cut off
(Could that be done without inflicting pain)
