But we can force open the way;
Our llamas are laden with food--
We are ready to traverse the wilds.

Pachacuti.

Are you really ready to start
To punish those angry snakes?
But first you must give them a chance
To surrender, retiring in peace,
So that blood may not flow without cause,
That no deaths of my soldiers befall.



Ollantay.

I am ready to march with my men,
Every detail prepared and in place,
But alas! I am heavy with care,
Almost mad with anxious suspense.
