— O rio está aqui perto, tendes a vossa clavina; colocar-nos-emos cada um sobre uma ponta do rochedo; aquele que cair morto ou simplesmente ferido, pertencerá ao rio e à cachoeira; não incomodará o outro.

The setting

The river is near here, you have your carbine; we will each place ourselves on a point of the crag; the one who falls dead or simply wounded will belong to the river and the waterfall; he will not trouble the other.
