Who is it that calls on one long-lost to the joyous world?
gpt
One you have seen but seldom, who has been vilely traduced, and accused of your death--Luis d'Almeida.
human
You have been amply avenged, then, senhor, for the evil thoughts I entertained of you, answered the young Goncalo.
gpt
This is true charity--thus to visit, in a loathsome dungeon, one who has so wronged and injured you. Ah! It is too late now--I have but short time to survive.
human
I have never for a moment had a hostile feeling towards you,
gpt
Thanks, thanks! it is a consolation to know that a friend of those dear to me will receive my dying breath, and convey my last wishes to my father and sweet sister,--or do I see in you the husband of Clara?
human
Alas! no, my friend, replied Luis, deeply affected.
gpt
I am a prisoner like yourself, and, perchance, shall be released but by death.
human
What! have you also fallen a victim to the wiles of that vile miscreant, San Vincente?
gpt
I know not even of what crime I am accused, answered Luis; and he explained, in a few words, the supposed conspiracy, and its fatal consequences.
human
But tell me by what extraordinary circumstances I see you here?
gpt
By the machinations of a villain! returned the young Fidalgo.
human
But I am faint, and can scarce tell my tale. A few drops from yonder flask of wine, supplied me by the charity of my kind gaoler, will give me strength to proceed, if you will hand it to me.
