Read the full text in our reader

D. Lauriana e Isabel de joelhos oravam a Deus, rendendo-lhe graças; Cecília ainda assustada apoiava-se ao peito de seu pai e beijava-lhe a mão com ternura; o índio humilde e submisso fitava um olhar profundo de admiração sobre a moça que tinha salvado.

The setting

D. Lauriana and Isabel, on their knees, prayed to God, rendering him thanks; Cecília, still frightened, leaned against her father's breast and kissed his hand with tenderness; the Indian, humble and submissive, fixed a deep gaze of admiration on the girl he had saved.
