Hadda Padda Monologue from Hadda Pada

From Hadda Pada by Guðmundur Kamban

female · anguished · 1:21 min

She has separated us. She has caught you in the net of her wantonness. You, too, Ingolf, you, too.... When I looked at you, you could see my love in my eyes. But she, she looked at you through a veil of wantonness, so that your imagination might create what it liked behind it--? was that what attracted you? I gave you all that I had. She took back with the left hand what she had given with her right--was that what attracted you? Ingolf, do you value such a character? Don't you know how she is? I know you think she loves you. So she has told them all. Her love is a remorseless beast of prey. She does not even spare her sister, though she knows you are the only man I ever loved. But she MUST have this triumph--this one, too. Are you going to yield to it?
