REDFEATHER. What I am You know. But I will never curse a man, Even in a mirror. OLIVE [_smiling at him_]. And the Devil's dance? REDFEATHER. The Devil plotted since the world was young With alchemies of fire and witches' oils And magic. But he never made a man. OLIVE. No; not a man. REDFEATHER. Not even my Lord Orm. Look at the house now-- [_She starts and looks._] Honest brick and tiles. |
