"Do not interrupt me"

Read the full text in our reader

— Não me interrompais. Não é uma queixa que vos faço; é sim uma declaração que deveis receber, pois é necessária para que possais compreender o que tenho de dizer-vos ainda. Quando durante quarenta anos jogamos nossa vida quase todos os dias, quando vimos a morte cem vezes sobre nossa cabeça, ou debaixo de nossos pés, podemos olhar tranquilos o termo da viagem que fazemos neste vale de lágrimas.

The setting

"Do not interrupt me. It is not a complaint I make to you; it is indeed a declaration you must receive, for it is needful that you may understand what I have still to tell you. When for forty years we gamble our life almost every day, when we have seen death a hundred times over our head, or beneath our feet, we can look calmly on the end of the journey we make in this vale of tears."
