…to live together after god’s holy ordinance, in the holy estate of matrimony? will thou obey him and serve him, love, honor and keep him, and forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?

cry, the unborn child
the inheritor of our fear
let him not laugh too gladly in the water of the clove
nor stand too silent when the setting sun
makes the veld red with fire
[stephen, spoken]
and now you are man and wife, my son and my daughter. irina will come with me to ndotshéni.

i am glad, my father.

i thank you, my father.

will you wish to say goodbye to irina?
[absalom, spoken]
there is no way to say goodbye. my father, i must go to pretoria.
[stephen, spoken]
there will be an appeal.
[absalom, spoken]
but it will not help. i am afraid. i am afraid of the hanging.

be of courage, my son.
[absalom, spoken]
it’s no help to be of courage! o tixo, tixo, i am afraid of the rope and the hanging! where i go, there will be no wife or child or father or mother. there is no food taken or given. and no marriage where i go. o tixo, tixo!

nor give his heart to a mountain
nor to a valley

of old men and old women
of mothers and children
