"THE YACHT ISABEL ARRIVED THIS AFTERNOON" "Off the northeast coast of Venezuela lies Margarita Island, the most famous and beautiful island of the Antilles." "A land of sailors." "Once a Mecca for greedy adventurers, who came from all latitudes, attracted by the fame of its pearls." "Margarita is like a dazzling invocation to the world of fauna." " One more, sir!" " One more!" "One, two, three." " You got it just before me!" " No way, it's too far down!" "It's gone!" "Look, Juan got it!" "Well done, well done." "The next one's mine, sir!" "Throw us one more!" "Last one, sir!" "Yeah, throw a fuerte now, sir!" "Just wait." "Well, he really has one, damn." "He's going to do it!" "Come on, throw it!" "One, two, three." "Fish it out yet, kid?" " It's hard, it's very far down." " It's lost in the sand." "I cramped up!" "Juan is still down there!" "Dad, I almost didn't make it." "Go get him." "Dad..." "It's my fault you're all soaked." "Forgive me, okay?" "That's who you owe an apology to!" "The sea is there for work, for boats, for nets." "It's not to be played with." " Hey, Segundo." " What's up, Modesto?" " Dad..." " Don't Dad me!" "You'd be there with your belly swollen if I hadn't arrived in time, and all for a damn real that a foreigner threw you to amuse himself." "A real you don't even need!" "But Dad, it's not about the real." "It's about the glory from holding your breath the longest." "Yes, and for that glory, many have never come back up." "A man doesn't do those things unless he needs to, son." "To save another person, to save your boat, or, like the fishermen, to snatch from the waters the piece of bread that God wouldn't put at ground level for them." "Yeah, you're right." "If you only knew how fond I am of you when you scold me like that." "You know, how old captains talk." "Like... a dad." " When will you take me to work on The Isabel?" " After tomorrow's trip." "After we get back tomorrow." "And don't ask me again, kid, for God's sake." "Wow, so what'll we tell Mom?" "I don't know, but we'll have to think of something." "Let's go ride out the storm, cabin boy!" "Isabel?" " Isabel!" " Yes?" "You're home?" "We both are, but we don't want you to ask us anything." "You don't want me to ask you what?" "Good Lord!" "You just put that on this afternoon!" "Segundo, where'd you take him?" " Why'd you let him get wet, Juan?" " No, no... it's not his fault." "He was helping me check below the waterline on the boat, and we were in a rowboat, at the bow, see?" "And the water rose suddenly, when we were bent over, a little like this..." "The wave came, and boom!" "And we turned back." "The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary, and she conceived of the Holy Ghost." "Cross yourselves, heretics." "Behold the handmaid of the Lord." "What are you doing, Mom?" "Packing up Segundo's clothes, what he'll bring tomorrow." "What about my clothes?" "There's time for yours, dear." "You're not going yet." "Sure, but I will soon." "Mom, why don't we just go buy another suitcase already?" "You'll see." "One day I'll leave and won't even have anything to carry my clothes." "You've got time, dear." "Segundo comes for you in 15 or 20 days, so there's plenty of time." " Mom." " What?" "When I'm working as a cabin boy on the boat, what do I have to call my dad?" "Dad, or Captain?" "They're both the same, dear." "When men work at sea, the captain is like a father for everyone." "Martinote says that too, and he says that's why my dad is the best captain in Nueva Esparta." "Man, I can't wait to start working on the boat." " My dad says he started out as a cabin boy too." " That's right." "And so did your grandfather, and his father too." "Bless me, Mom." "May God bless you, son, and make you a good captain." "Why do you like that song so much?" "It's beautiful, and it's sad." "But, I don't know, there's also something odd about it." "Where did you learn it?" "At some port." "At sea, maybe." "Yes... maybe at sea." "It has all its seduction, and all its nostalgia." "Segundo..." "What?" "Something's up with you, something you won't tell me." "Like what?" "I don't understand it myself." "It's as if you were running from me." "Since you came back from La Guaira, we haven't gone out." "We haven't talked like we used to." "You spend your days in silence in the hammock." "And you spend your nights alone, whistling before the sea, as if, with that whistling, you were calling things you loved which were far away." "No, Isabel." "It's not like that." "You know that everything I love is here, on the shores of these waters, on this piece of coastline." "My son." "My boat." "My wife." "I know what's wrong." "It saddens you to think that I'll be leaving you again tomorrow," "It's always been that way." "It's just that I can't get used to having you at sea, and the years will pass and you'll grow old at sea, ...and I'll never be able to get used to it." " Me either." "I've always wanted a part of you with me on my voyages." "That's why I christened the boat in your name." "Come on, Segundo!" "Wait..." "It's of the Virgin of the Valley, to protect you from evil." "Oh don't laugh at me!" "Let's go, Segundo!" " All set?" " All set." " Set a course at once." "Hoist the jib!" "We're leaving!" "Cabin boy!" " Captain?" " Go ashore, before we're too far out!" "He's a seaman now." "Just like his father." "Eat up, men!" "We're almost at La Guaira." "Whoever doesn't eat on the boat, can't drink on land, right?" "La Guaira..." "Josefita must be dying for me to arrive." "Josefita?" "You're the one who's dying to get there, man." "Quit talking nonsense!" "What about this guy?" "One mention of La Guaira and his eyes get as big as potatoes!" "No way, man." "I haven't been there since I was taken to the police over that one girl." "That's the last she'll see of me!" "I won't even go ashore." "He says that now, but later he'll go into Callejón Muchinga, and he won't come out, not even if they burn it down." ""Simón Palma, darling, you didn't bring me a pearl!"" "When the broken-down and deserted boats dream under the moon about setting sail, through the night streets of the ports my song goes to the sea." "How do you know that song, you devil?" " Who taught it to you?" " It's Esperanza's song." "Any person who's been to La Guaira knows Esperanza and her song." "Esperanza's song..." "Yes the two of them are alike." "It's as if they're the same thing, Esperanza and her song." "I can see her waiting for me on the dock, with carnations in her hair, wearing her floral nightgown, with her red shoes, and no socks." " Raise the flag, Martinote." " It's already up, man." "But it seems they haven't seen it on land." " How can that be?" " I don't know." "Around there, they say that when the boat has a flag it's greeting her." "Her?" "Who's her?" "When do we unload?" "In the morning." "Put up the canopy and keep a man aboard on watch." "The others can be on shore until tomorrow." "Here." "If you want money, see Martinote!" "Don't drink too much!" "Get drunk on me and I'll leave you!" "Be very careful, guys." "After crossing the sea, after crossing the sea, for a whole week." "After crossing the sea, after crossing the sea, for a whole week." "Oh how it hurts to arrive, Oh how it hurts to arrive, where no one is waiting for me." "Bye, Segundo!" "Olga, the Isabel arrived this afternoon." "Segundo, did Simón come too?" "Yes, but he hasn't been paid." "Apples here!" "I've got oranges!" "Apples and oranges here!" "Don't bother, friend!" "They beat her, and it's like she's being tickled!" "A swan whiter... than a white lily... on the shore of a lake, it had its mansion..." "Look, Mrs. Crespo, it's like I've always said:" ""There are no bad men, but there are stubborn women."" "María, who are you talking to?" "It's Segundo." "But it's the only way, Mrs. Crespo." "A man tells me:" ""Don't move that basket," and I don't move it." "I jump this way and that way, and I don't move it." "Give me a cigarette, daddy." "Don't you know where Esperanza is?" " She fell in love with the bigshot with the musician's mustache." " What?" "Okay." "God is good, and he kills people." "I've got mandarins!" "I've got oranges!" "I've got apples!" "THE HORN OF PLENTY" " Segundo Mendoza, when did you arrive?" " Just now!" " What did you bring me?" " Love, baby!" "I'm your traveling love, my captain." "On my highest sail goes your memory, and my voice carries on the breeze, searching the sea for you." "A long kiss of foam" "I would give you to be in your arms like the sea and bewitch you with sea mist and remoteness and lunar reverie." "I'm your traveling love, my captain." "On my highest sail goes your memory, and my voice carries on the breeze, searching the sea for you." "Don't go." "Keep playing." "It's only for a moment." "I'll be right back." "Let go of her." "She won't fly away." "You're wrong, admiral." "I was first." "It's Captain..." "and don't you forget it." "What's your wager?" ""No risk, no reward."" "All that I've got against all that you've got." "Let's do it." "José, another round!" "Excuse me." "Hit me." "Take another, baby." "I'm next, the Ace of Diamonds." "Another." "Seven or better and you win." "Turn it over." "Seven and a half." "I won with the Ace of Diamonds." "Okay, maybe next time." " Get ready, we're going." " We're going?" "No, you're going!" "No, sir." "You lost." "You're coming with me!" "No she's not." "Can't you see she's with a man?" "So it's about looks, or what?" "Okay." "Take her." "Take her." "Of course I will." "No man here will take her from me!" "You couldn't lose, baby, because I'm the Ace of Diamonds." "Bocú told me so." "This afternoon, he read my cards and told me:" ""You're the Ace of Diamonds." ""You're surrounded by horses..." "and swords."" "Oh no, man." "Not at my bar." "If you want to get intimate, go back home." "Amid darkness and shadows of death." "Well, before my bread, he has my sigh." "And my moans run like water." "Poor thing." "María, don't you want a cigarette?" "You!" "You put out my eyes and swallowed them, to make me see your insides!" "But you're the resounding man of the seafoam." "All sailors are good, because the sea has cleansed their hearts." "Goodbye, María." "[?" "], Mrs. Crespo." "There's a little snow left..." "And don't come back, or I swear on my mother, I'll slash your face!" "What do you think this is, a charity?" "I've been waiting all week for you, Segundo." "I got tired of seeing ship after ship, and none with your flag." "Why are you so sad, if we're together again now?" "No, baby." "Not in the street." "Segundo..." "I have to tell you something very important." " No, it's not that!" " What then, baby?" " It's just..." "Don't be afraid." " Let's go to your place." " No, not there." "For what I want to tell you, I need clean words words I wouldn't find there." "Let's go to Playa Escondida." "What's this medallion?" "It protects against evil." "What were you going to say?" "I don't even know." "It's such an ugly life one leads so ugly and so sad." "I wasn't born for this, Segundo... to wander around there like a stray dog... to end up like María crazy, broken by poverty and life." "Help me, Segundo!" "Okay, Esperanza." "I'll help you." "You also have the right to be a respectable woman." "When you hold me my eyelids die." "I fell in love at night" "I fell in love at night, and the moon deceived me" "The moon doesn't deceive anyone" "The moon doesn't deceive anyone, I'm the one who's been deceived" "I am the same as the river" "I am the same as the river, and you are the same as the sea." "Your body is like the sand" "Your body is like the sand, where I lie down to dream." "Yes, there's something of the sea in your body." "The wide and generous sea." "I see it when your hair has passed out on the sand, reminding me of seafoam." "But then sleep comes to you, peaceful bay sleep," "and I gaze at you... until I fall asleep at your side... like a yacht falling asleep at port after its journey has ended." "I'll stay with you forever Esperanza." "I have some good gin for you." "Poor guy!" "A Dutch sailor had nothing else to give, so he gave me this." "What's wrong, darling?" "Why so quiet?" "I don't know." "I was thinking about the boat." "I've been gone for three days, and it leaves today." " But you're staying, right?" " Yeah, I'm staying." "But I still have to go over there." "Let me go, Josefa!" "Let me go!" "I'm gonna cut this bitch!" "You're the bitch!" "You and your whole generation!" "Oh no, she's got a knife!" "My God, these women!" "And so early!" "Well, I'm going." "I'll be back soon." "Yeah, fight, fight!" "Take that, and that!" " Stop it!" " Get the hell off me!" " She stole my...!" " This way!" " That's a lie, officer!" "She traded it to me for a nightstand and a pair of socks." "That's a lie!" "She stole them for Bocú!" "She's under Bocú's power!" "Bocú told her to hurt me!" "Let go of me!" "Let go of me!" "Enjoy the free ride!" "Send me a postcard from headquarters!" "Why are you looking at me like that, Bocú?" "What are you thinking?" "That man won't be back again." "A Margaritanian woman, a Margaritanian woman, always has her nobility." "A Margaritanian woman, a Margaritanian woman, always has her nobility." "Looking for her children's bread, looking for her children's bread, with the sea on her mind." "Looking for her children's bread, looking for her children's bread, with the sea on her mind." "Finally, man!" "Segundo's back from the dead!" "Men!" "Cast off, we're leaving!" "There, as he does every day, comes the Lord, miraculously walking on water." "Your sunny tunic, like the tunic of a sailboat, for going off and sprinkling holy water." "5-7-4-3 and 2000 bolívars." "5-7-4-3 and 2000 bolívars." "5-7-4-3 and 2000 bolívars!" "5-7-4-3 and 2000 bolívars." "Leave me alone, María." "You don't love me either, in all this bitterness?" "Never mind me." "It's just that Segundo left." "So long..." "Se-gundo." "So long Se-gundo, so long Se-..." "Liar!" "You said you'd take me from this life!" " A curse on you, liar!" " No curses!" "If you cast curses, may your mouth get twisted!" "By the cross of Saint Andrew, and the rod of Saint Joseph, and the holy laurel branch..." "Enemy, be gone... from the four corners of Jerusalem!" "José la Trinidá, you have to help me with something." "How much does Bocú charge?" "Girl, you're gonna get mixed up with Bocú?" "Be very careful with Bocú." "He's... dangerous." "I don't care." "I'm not afraid of him." " How much does he charge?" " Take my advice." "Look, when he gets hold of a woman, he never lets her go, and you're a very pretty girl." "Yeah, but it doesn't work on me." "You told him to read my cards, and I was fine." "That's different." "He himself says he's not very strong with cards, but with sorcery... wow!" "Haven't you heard about that Cuban sorcerer who they killed on the beach because he was driving women insane?" "That was Bocu's father." "Crazy María's too." "Watch out." "Like father, like son." "Okay, man, but how much?" "I don't know." "I've heard 30 bolívares." "30 bolívares..." "Where am I going to get that?" "Hello." "At last, the fallen woman appears." "Fallen?" "Hardly." "I was waiting for you my love." "Come in." "My little ones are protected by the stars." "The money." " What do you want to happen?" " I want my man to return." " Do you have faith?" " I do." " What's his name?" " Segundo Mendoza." "Give me something that has touched his body." "Where is he?" "At sea, on the Isabel." "Stand up." "Uncover your breast." "María, my dear sister, sing the santiguao for her." "With this stick," "I will bless... the black Devil, to save their soul." "Curruta, cutá." "Curruta, cutá." "Curruta, cutá." "Curruta, cutá." "Do you know the Tobacco Prayer?" "Recite it with me." "I invoke the spirit of Segundo Mendoza." "By the Tobacco God..." "By the Tobacco God..." "All those with legs, may they follow me." "All those with legs, may they follow me." "All those with hands, may they touch me." "All those with hands, may they touch me." "All those with eyes, may they watch me." "All those with eyes, may they watch me." "Within a period I choose." "Within a period I choose." " Amen." " Amen." "And like dark butterflies, these words will fly out over the sea," "amid the black night." "They will pursue the Isabel, and tangle themselves in its masts," "until they become the thoughts of the man they see." "Amen." "What is it about some women?" "Two days at sea, and Esperanza already has his blood burning again." "Saint Elmo's Fire!" "Segundo, it's the light that heralds misfortune!" "Tréspiro, to the mainsail!" "Head for Carenero!" "The man is traveling by sea." "The man will come by sea." "The son will bring him to you or take him from you." "He has a son... and it all depends on him whether he'll return to your side, or stay forever in other lands." "No, not that!" "The spell requires it." "A tear for the dead evaporates." "A flower on her grave withers away." "Her passage through the Earth was like a perfume." "You who knew her pray for her." "Let's go live on a mountain" "It won't [?" "] me" "You're leaving for a new love" "I bet it won't hurt me" "To not love you anymore" "Segundo!" "Listen, we've got nothing more to do here." "Enough of the San Juan festival." "Come back aboard, the weather's good!" "No, I'm staying in Carenero." "Leave me alone!" " I've never seen him so drunk before." " He's not drunk." "It's that woman." "She put the Devil in him." "Tonight we have to leave for Margarita, come on!" "Esperanza!" "Segundo..." "I'll go home with you." "I brought a gift for Juan." "Not yet." "I'm going for a drink." " My God, Segundo's here." " Segundo's here." " When did you arrive, Martinote?" " Just now." "Martín..." " Bring what I asked for?" " Yeah." "Snow." "Yesterday I was in Cubagua, Segundo." "I saw Juan there with the pearl divers." "Yeah, I know." "You didn't go straight home like you always do." "Why?" "Enough!" "Segundo." "Esperanza." "Forgive me!" "Bocú he hasn't come." "He'll come." "The spell said he would." "But when?" "When it's his time." "The shells have spoken." ""His son will bring him to you or take him from you."" "Have faith." "If he comes I'll never forget you," "Bocú." "Isabel." "What do you think about me selling the boat?" "Whatever you think is best." "Segundo..." "How are you going to live without your boat, which you've always loved so much?" "Yes." "I loved it a lot, almost like my own flesh and blood, when it helped to bring me closer to you, but now I feel it's starting to keep me from you, and before it's too late, I want to sell it." "Of the Isabel I'll have nothing left, except the name." "Dad!" " Bless me, Dad." " God bless you." " Bless me." " God bless you, son." " And where were you?" " In Cubagua, with the pearl divers." "Look what I brought you." "I found it myself." "Dad, wait here." "Look, it's like yours." "It's what I'm going to bring." " Bring where?" " On the boat." "Don't you remember I'm going with you tomorrow?" "Dad, how much does a cabin boy make?" "Well, it all depends." "If you learn fast..." "Look, son." "The truth is, I can't..." "Juan, I already prepared everything for you." "See, there was time." "I'll go pack right away." "Segundo..." "We can't destroy his dream." "Make the trip for him and for me." "I also want you to go, to see you come back clear and calm, like you used to do." "Here comes the little donkey, and it's coming from Pampatar." "Here comes the little donkey, and it's coming from Pampatar." "And it didn't come earlier because it didn't have a muzzle," "And it didn't come earlier because it didn't have a muzzle," "Oh yes, oh no, Mariquita gave me a canary that sang the verses of the Child God, a canary that sang the verses of the Child God." "Oh yes, oh no, Mariquita gave me a canary that sang the verses of the Child God, a canary that sang the verses of the Child God." "Well done, well done!" "He wants to be like his father so much... that he now imitates him even in the things that he shouldn't imitate." " Can I help, Dad?" " Get away!" "If that beam comes free, it'll break your leg!" "What's wrong, man?" "It's my Dad." "He's yelled at me twice now for no reason." "On land he wasn't like that." "That happens." "When the winds aren't good it puts any captain in a bad mood." "Juan, here's some advice from an old sailor:" "When you're on the boat, don't see Segundo as your father." "See him as your captain." "A sailor must have no father except the sea." "Dad." "Where are you going?" "What's that hat?" " Aren't we going on shore?" " Not a chance." " You won't be going on any shore." " But Dad, you told me...!" "I said no!" "You'll stay on board, and I'll come get you later!" "Segundo..." "I knew you'd come back." "That you had to come back!" "Esperanza..." "Segundo..." "Don't say anything." "All I want to do now is kiss you, kiss you so I can speak." "I've waited so long to return, my words have died." "I tried to keep you from my life, but it was all useless." "Something told me that, sooner or later, I'd have to return to you." "Lies, Segundo!" "You say those things now, but later you'll give me the boot and leave, like the other day." "I'd almost say it was your son who made you come." "And how do you know that?" "So he really did come with you?" "Then you really will stay, my love." "You will stay." "That's more than enough, Juan." " You're not going to eat?" " I'm not hungry." "What's wrong?" "You know what it is." "My dad hasn't been back since we arrived." "We've been here for nearly four days." "Oh god, I thought it was something else!" "Look, he said he'd return for me, and he hasn't come." "He lied to go off alone!" "Juan!" "Your dad doesn't lie!" "If he hasn't been back..." "he must be busy." "If he doesn't return, I'm going ashore alone!" "Sailors don't stay on board when they reach port!" "Sailors stay on the ship when the captain orders them to." "If Segundo left you on board, you stay on board." "And if I go, what then?" "If you go, you'll get paid for the week, and we'll find a new cabin boy, and that's that." "Get a load of him!" "So little and already a cop!" "Let's go, let's go!" "Everyone to bed!" "It's midnight and you have to get up early!" "Let's go, let's go!" "Everyone to bed!" "It's midnight and you have to get up early!" "...bewitch you with sea mist and remoteness and lunar reverie." "I'm your traveling love, my captain." "On my highest sail goes your memory, and my voice carries on the breeze, searching for you at sea." "Oh no, man!" "No way!" "A boy in here?" "Absolutely not!" "Come on, get going." "You're too young to be here." "Who said to come here?" "Didn't I tell you to stay on board?" "Yes, you did, and you went off alone." "You thought I'd get in the way of you coming here for for her!" "But son..." "How could you think that that I'd lie to you like that?" " But you did lie!" "You lied to me, like you always have!" "Juan!" "Don't let that boy disrespect you, Segundo!" "Leave me alone." "I'm talking to my Dad!" "Stay out of it, Esperanza." "Juan..." "You have to understand things better, son." "Look, all seamen..." "You're lying!" "That's a lie!" "What you used to tell me was that seamen must have clean hands, and look at yours!" "The same hands you'll use later to caress Mom's face!" " Tell that kid not to insult me!" " Don't call me kid, lady!" "Maybe I'm not falling-over drunk with you, but I'm still a man!" "He wanted to take you, my love take you from my side." "Now I really trust you." "Hey, what is this, a wake or something?" "Hey barman, drinks on me for everyone here." "Just serve, I'm good for it!" "What's going on?" "Can decent people get service here or not?" "What are you waiting for?" "Order already!" "I've got money!" "Enough to buy this little bar, bartender and all!" " Right, man?" " Right, Segundo." " Then get them some beer!" "Long live Segundo Mendoza!" "Let's hear Esperanza sing!" "Yeah, of course!" "Let's hear Esperanza sing." "Get on those guitars!" "When the broken-down and deserted boats dream under the moon about setting sail," "through the night streets of the ports" "Silence!" "my song goes to the sea." "I'm your traveling love, my captain." "On my highest sail goes your memory, and my voice carries on the breeze, searching the sea for you." "A long kiss of foam" "I would give you to be in your arms like the sea and bewitch you with sea mist and remoteness and lunar reverie." "I'm your traveling love, my captain." "On my highest sail goes your memory, and my voice carries on the breeze, searching the sea for you." "A long kiss of foam" "I would give you to be in your arms like the sea and bewitch you with sea mist and remoteness and lunar reverie." "I'm your traveling love, my..." "Segundo!" "Segundo Mendoza!" "Wake up, man!" "What's with you?" "What did you do to Juan?" "The poor kid came back like a wounded dog!" "Go away." "Segundo, you have to go see your son right now!" "There's still time to repair the damage!" "Where are you going?" "To look for Esperanza." "It's her who should be looking for you!" "A woman who loves a man doesn't abandon him in a dive bar!" "Leave her out of this!" "Just admit that you hate her!" "That you're dying of envy!" "Okay, Segundo." "After all..." "I only came to tell you that we finished unloading, and we leave tomorrow." "Who gave that order?" "The man in charge on the boat..." "when there's no captain." "We set sail at dawn." "Bye, honey." "What's wrong, baby?" "No cigarette for your darling?" "Look at that, you jerk!" "Are you afraid giving me an answer will hurt your reputation as a cheapskate?" "That's why I send my children to school." "So they don't grow up to be cheapskates like you!" "María, where's Esperanza?" " Oh, I know where she is." " Where is she?" "She married a Portu-Italian man." "Where is Esperanza?" "Answer me!" "Where Bocú has her nailed for the rest of her life on a cross of thorns in your thoughts." "Why'd you say Bocú?" "Sooner or later they'll all come to sigh on the sands of Playa Escondida." "My brother says..." ""On your knees!"" "And they lie down with their insides full of fireflies!" "For the sake of the blessed souls who are in purgatory" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" "For the sake of the blessed souls who are in purgatory" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" "Oh, my pullet went out in the street and I pray to God that nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "For the sake of the blessed souls who are in purgatory" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the drum!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the guitar!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here are the maracas!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the ring!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the flower!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the handkerchief!" " Of the mampulorio!" " Here is the candle!" " Of the mampulorio!" "Oh, my pullet went out in the street and I pray to God that nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!" "That nobody finds him!"
