The fact is, in those letters
her ladyship leaves...

2:06:10
clear evidence
ofher ardent passion...

2:06:14
for Carlos Eraul.
2:06:17
But there is one...
2:06:21
which is very special.
2:06:24
In this letter, her ladyship...
2:06:29
gives precise news...
2:06:32
about the charms
and the health of their daughter.

2:06:38
The honor of the house of Albrit...
2:06:41
demands...
2:06:44
the destruction of that letter!
2:06:46
Honor, of course.
2:06:49
Honor, the honor of the Albrit!
2:06:52
Have you forgotten
that I was born a plebeian...

2:06:56
and honor is something
that doesn't move me?

2:07:00
Speak to me
of something material...

2:07:03
more substantial...
2:07:06
if the merchandise
really interests you.

2:07:11
You know very well
that I am poverty-stricken.

2:07:18
I can offer you nothing.
2:07:20
Yes.
2:07:21
There's something.
2:07:28
That drop of blood...
2:07:31
which gleams on your hand.
2:07:34
What is it?
2:07:37
A ruby, perhaps?
2:07:42
It was a gift...
2:07:44
which was made...
2:07:48
to a viceroy of Peru.
2:07:52
For seven generations...
2:07:57
it has belonged...
2:07:59
to the House of Albrit.
