(To Zoram) When Chrysal spoke the words that angered you
He did not mean to speak them. He believed
That he was paying you a compliment.
(To Chrysal) When Zoram said that he considered you
A systematic liar, mean, poor, base,
Selfish, and sordid, cruel, tyrannical,
’Twas what he thought—not what he would have said!
Chrys. I see—if that was only what he thought
It makes a difference.
Gélan.What could he say?
