Excerpt from Thedora: A Dramatic Poem, Founded on an Old Spanish Romance
Dramatis Personae.
Thedora, the young widow of a wealthy old man.
Mohican, a young man who had left his native State because of marital troubles.
Mendoca, a suitor for Thedora's hand, and later a friend of Mohican.
DePons, also a suitor for Thedora's hand.
Mohabbid, a slave holder
Doctor, Servants, Pirates.
Canto One.
As onward Don Mohican sped,
A fateful love still in his breast,
He thought: "To mock my trust in her
From out my heart I'll woman wrest."
And he, so young and tall and strong,
Forsaking country, friends and home,
Had sought Valencia's broad highway -
Avoiding heartaches hence he'd roam.
He'd traveled long, and raced his steed,
His back he'd turned upon the past, -
The love which once had tortured him
Was from his bosom being cast.
