of my case, is that you tell me: how many girls have you seen whose hands resemble mine?

Tell me, have you seen many before me who live in a nebula of feeling and emotion and solitary sensibility? Have you touched what injustice does in the throbbing of their hearts, or learned what orphanhood and poverty stir in the recesses of their souls?

Has there passed before your eye a girl who does not know what she wants? Molded, like me, to be drawn to ethereal things without fathoming their essence; all-embracing in her love, excessive in her hatred, extravagant in gathering contradictions within herself ..

Have you scrutinized a hand through which run the veins of weakness, like my hand — infatuated with the love of good, yet falling short of attaining it?

Tell me that the number of those like me is small, that I may conclude that weakness is confined to the few, and take comfort that the feeling of faintheartedness and pain is limited in its range.

O reader of palms .. give us your own palm, that we may read in it the marks of hypocrisy and lying, and help us to understand why man lies to his brother man. Why do you run to such extremes of exaggeration, distortion, and repetition? And why do we go so deep in feigning our belief and our faith in everything you utter? And why do we go on nurturing in you a livelihood built on deception, while you go on nurturing in us a dependence more galling than deception, and more barren!

Rather, give us the page of your face, burnished with the bronze of the gypsies, that we may read in its regular features the lines of the freedom lying deep in your soul, and learn how the love of it is blended into your blood, until you have come to follow its call from land to land ..

Take me with you among the people, O gypsy woman, and teach me how you choose your words, saying to this

one what you do not say to that one; point out to me the signs of cunning and evasiveness in souls, and the possibility of goodness and truth within them; and walk

me through all the roads of the city until I am worn out like you; then bring me back to your fluttering tent, and light the lamp within it, and fill my mind with the colors of your native wisdom.
