The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar by Edgar Rice Burroughs: he did not wish to die.
"Very well then, you shall not," said Tarzan. "Come!
We will go. This SHE would kill you and keep me
for herself. It is no place anyway for a Mangani.
I should soon die, shut up behind these stone walls."
He turned toward La. "We are going now," he said.
The woman rushed forward and seized the ape-man's hands
in hers.
"Do not leave me!" she cried. "Stay, and you shall be
High Priest. La loves you. All Opar shall be yours.
Slaves shall wait upon you. Stay, Tarzan of the Apes,
Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar |
