1 00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:35,511 Dearest Sylvia, 2 00:01:35,511 --> 00:01:36,971 we arrived here this morning 3 00:01:36,971 --> 00:01:39,307 after a most melancholy journey. 4 00:01:39,307 --> 00:01:41,767 Never shall I forget the picture of despair 5 00:01:41,767 --> 00:01:44,270 poor Henry exhibited when we parted. 6 00:01:44,270 --> 00:01:47,857 Do all in your power to comfort your dear brother, 7 00:01:47,857 --> 00:01:49,734 my beloved fiancée. 8 00:01:49,734 --> 00:01:54,530 Tell him, although I obey my mother's and my uncle's wishes, 9 00:01:55,406 --> 00:01:59,577 still my heart in every climb will be true to him. 10 00:02:01,579 --> 00:02:05,958 Oh Sylvia, how cruel is the sacrifice exacted 11 00:02:06,208 --> 00:02:08,419 in our obedience to our parents. 12 00:02:08,419 --> 00:02:10,588 To become my uncle's heir 13 00:02:10,838 --> 00:02:13,174 I must journey to this distant India, 14 00:02:13,507 --> 00:02:15,801 I am torn from all I hold dear, 15 00:02:16,636 --> 00:02:19,388 my mother, my lover, 16 00:02:19,930 --> 00:02:21,599 my friend. 17 00:02:21,849 --> 00:02:25,269 - Heaven only knows how fondly I dwell on the prospect 18 00:02:25,519 --> 00:02:27,813 of becoming the wife of your dear brother. 19 00:02:28,397 --> 00:02:32,151 You may guess, but I pray you may never feel the anguish 20 00:02:32,151 --> 00:02:34,070 caused by such a separation, 21 00:02:35,029 --> 00:02:36,364 but it is decided 22 00:02:37,365 --> 00:02:40,368 I can only supplicate heaven for a speedy return. 23 00:02:41,243 --> 00:02:44,622 I must hasten for even now, I hear my good Eliza 24 00:02:44,622 --> 00:02:47,041 and the porters coming to fetch our luggage. 25 00:02:48,501 --> 00:02:50,419 - Mistress? - Come in, Eliza. 26 00:02:54,131 --> 00:02:57,134 - Oh Miss Barlow, it's time, we sail within the hour. 27 00:02:57,385 --> 00:02:59,720 The men wait without for our luggage. 28 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,598 - I know, dear Eliza, one minute more. 29 00:03:02,598 --> 00:03:05,184 I must conclude my letter to Miss Carey in London 30 00:03:06,102 --> 00:03:07,436 and then we shall depart. 31 00:03:08,896 --> 00:03:10,690 - Must you go? 32 00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:12,441 - Sweet girl would that I could, 33 00:03:13,567 --> 00:03:16,153 but one must always respond to the call of duty. 34 00:03:16,696 --> 00:03:19,031 Remember, Eliza, while it is true 35 00:03:19,031 --> 00:03:23,160 that rank brings privilege, it also endows responsibility. 36 00:03:24,495 --> 00:03:25,830 Now go and summon the men 37 00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:28,040 and I will conclude my letter to Miss Sylvia. 38 00:03:35,923 --> 00:03:39,844 Adieu my dear Sylvia, a long adieu. 39 00:03:40,094 --> 00:03:43,180 The boat waits to convey us on board at the Motherbank, 40 00:03:43,180 --> 00:03:44,682 as the captain calls it. 41 00:03:49,937 --> 00:03:51,397 Farewell Sylvia, 42 00:03:52,064 --> 00:03:53,524 comfort poor Henry. 43 00:03:54,859 --> 00:03:56,110 When I think of him, 44 00:03:57,111 --> 00:03:59,947 I feel what it is impossible to describe. 45 00:04:02,158 --> 00:04:05,369 Your unhappy friend, Emily Barlow. 46 00:04:19,091 --> 00:04:22,303 A messenger from Ali, Dey of Algiers 47 00:04:22,553 --> 00:04:26,390 bearing a letter for Muzra, the munificent Bey of Tunis. 48 00:04:41,906 --> 00:04:44,658 - Muzra, thy friend Ali greets thee 49 00:04:44,658 --> 00:04:47,036 with ten thousand thanks for thy late present. 50 00:04:47,912 --> 00:04:49,705 I allude to the Grecian maid, 51 00:04:49,955 --> 00:04:51,791 for so she was. 52 00:04:52,041 --> 00:04:54,376 The bearer of this dispatch has the care of a pair 53 00:04:54,376 --> 00:04:57,463 of beautiful stallions, which I lately captured 54 00:04:57,463 --> 00:05:00,257 from a tribe of Askulites who foolishly had made 55 00:05:00,257 --> 00:05:02,635 an inroad into my territories from the desert. 56 00:05:03,469 --> 00:05:05,095 I came upon them by surprise 57 00:05:05,095 --> 00:05:07,932 and properly chastised their presumption. 58 00:05:07,932 --> 00:05:10,726 Not more than a hundred escaped out of two thousand. 59 00:05:11,977 --> 00:05:14,063 Indeed I was in no humor to spare them. 60 00:05:21,445 --> 00:05:23,989 They having disturbed me in a scene of pleasure 61 00:05:23,989 --> 00:05:25,741 for which there could be no pardon. 62 00:05:26,951 --> 00:05:30,287 How dare these unwashed, uncouth nomad knaves 63 00:05:30,287 --> 00:05:33,082 disturb the thousand and one nights of the Dey? 64 00:05:33,999 --> 00:05:36,377 Muzra, my friend, they did 65 00:05:36,377 --> 00:05:38,379 and dearly they paid for their error. 66 00:05:42,925 --> 00:05:44,385 But more of this hereafter. 67 00:05:46,303 --> 00:05:49,056 The Grecian slave, I rejoice to say again, 68 00:05:49,056 --> 00:05:50,724 I found a pure maid. 69 00:05:55,187 --> 00:05:56,105 - Mm. 70 00:06:15,165 --> 00:06:16,750 Her virginity I sacrificed 71 00:06:16,750 --> 00:06:18,878 to the Beiram feast of our Holy Prophet. 72 00:06:38,772 --> 00:06:40,149 To cull her sweet flower 73 00:06:40,149 --> 00:06:42,818 I was obliged to infuse an opiate in her coffee. 74 00:07:11,055 --> 00:07:13,849 Again and again I thank you for the present. 75 00:07:13,849 --> 00:07:16,268 Her beauties are indeed luxurious. 76 00:07:20,272 --> 00:07:21,106 Mm. 77 00:07:42,503 --> 00:07:45,422 In her soft embrace I find a sure solace 78 00:07:45,422 --> 00:07:47,341 for my anxieties of state. 79 00:07:47,341 --> 00:07:48,175 Mm. 80 00:07:57,226 --> 00:07:58,894 But how strange it is, Muzra, 81 00:07:58,894 --> 00:08:02,982 that these slaves whose destinies depend on our will, 82 00:08:02,982 --> 00:08:06,068 rarely give that fervent return to our pleasure, 83 00:08:09,196 --> 00:08:10,447 absolutely necessary 84 00:08:10,447 --> 00:08:13,158 to the true voluptuous energy of enjoyment. 85 00:08:14,034 --> 00:08:16,745 It is true, nature will always exert its power 86 00:08:16,745 --> 00:08:18,580 over the softest sex, 87 00:08:18,580 --> 00:08:21,166 and they frequently give way to its excitement. 88 00:08:23,293 --> 00:08:26,088 But the pleasure they experience is merely animal. 89 00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:28,424 Thus it is with Zelia, 90 00:08:28,757 --> 00:08:31,093 so I have named your present, 91 00:08:31,343 --> 00:08:33,554 and even in the height of our ecstasies, 92 00:08:34,680 --> 00:08:37,975 a cloud seems to hang on her beauteous countenance, 93 00:08:38,434 --> 00:08:41,979 clearly indicating that it is nature, not love 94 00:08:42,229 --> 00:08:43,814 that creates her transport. 95 00:08:45,190 --> 00:08:47,484 Ah, this knowledge considerably diminishes 96 00:08:47,735 --> 00:08:49,445 the enjoyment her beauties afford me, 97 00:08:49,987 --> 00:08:51,572 yet still she has become 98 00:08:51,822 --> 00:08:53,991 extremely necessary to my pleasures. 99 00:09:28,901 --> 00:09:31,945 Although the novelty of her charms has gone by 100 00:09:32,571 --> 00:09:35,199 the certainty of having cropped her virgin rose 101 00:09:35,199 --> 00:09:37,701 has created a lasting interest in my bosom, 102 00:09:38,535 --> 00:09:40,496 which the dissolving luster and modest 103 00:09:40,746 --> 00:09:43,999 bashful expression of her eyes daily increases. 104 00:09:44,958 --> 00:09:47,503 Indeed, her charms frequently entice me 105 00:09:47,753 --> 00:09:50,714 from the arms of another beauty, who I may say for these 106 00:09:50,964 --> 00:09:53,967 last two months I have continually enjoyed 107 00:09:54,218 --> 00:09:56,261 without the least abatement of my ardor. 108 00:10:50,607 --> 00:10:55,612 True, this Greek maid has particular charms, 109 00:10:55,779 --> 00:10:58,782 but she only serves as the whetstone to the knife 110 00:10:58,782 --> 00:11:01,785 and sends me back to the embraces of my English slave 111 00:11:01,785 --> 00:11:04,079 with redoubled vigor and zest. 112 00:11:16,175 --> 00:11:19,094 In my next dispatch, I will give you an account 113 00:11:19,094 --> 00:11:21,555 of my becoming possessed of this girl, 114 00:11:21,805 --> 00:11:24,433 who has so enchanted thy friend's desires. 115 00:11:25,392 --> 00:11:27,686 May our prophet have thee in his holy keeping. 116 00:11:32,649 --> 00:11:36,987 Algiers, July 24, 1814. 117 00:11:36,987 --> 00:11:40,782 Dearest Sylvia, I think I see the expression of surprise 118 00:11:41,033 --> 00:11:42,701 on receiving my letter dated from this place. 119 00:11:44,036 --> 00:11:46,079 Oh God, Sylvia, to what a wretched fate 120 00:11:46,330 --> 00:11:48,373 has the intended kindness of my uncle 121 00:11:48,373 --> 00:11:51,960 devoted your miserable, unfortunate friend. 122 00:11:52,211 --> 00:11:55,923 Pity me Sylvia, pity my wretchedness. 123 00:11:56,590 --> 00:11:58,634 You have no doubt heard of the cruel treatment 124 00:11:58,634 --> 00:12:00,886 experienced by females who are unfortunate 125 00:12:00,886 --> 00:12:03,430 to fall into the power of these barbarous Turks, 126 00:12:05,015 --> 00:12:07,684 Particularly those who have any pretensions to beauty. 127 00:12:09,102 --> 00:12:12,314 But it is utterly impossible for you, Sylvia, 128 00:12:12,564 --> 00:12:16,568 to conjecture anything like my sufferings since we parted. 129 00:12:17,277 --> 00:12:21,782 Pity me, my dear friend, my tears blot out the words 130 00:12:21,782 --> 00:12:24,243 nearly as quick as I write them. 131 00:12:24,243 --> 00:12:25,702 Oh God, Sylvia, 132 00:12:27,079 --> 00:12:29,498 I have no longer claim to chastity. 133 00:12:36,255 --> 00:12:39,049 Surely never, never, never was poor maid 134 00:12:39,258 --> 00:12:42,386 so unfeelingly deprived of her virtue. 135 00:12:42,844 --> 00:12:45,889 The very day the accursed pirate brought me to this place, 136 00:12:46,431 --> 00:12:50,978 did the Dey, with cruel force in spite of my entreaties, 137 00:12:51,019 --> 00:12:55,816 screams and supplications, deprive me of my virginity. 138 00:12:55,816 --> 00:12:58,277 In vain I resisted with all the strengths 139 00:12:58,277 --> 00:13:01,321 nature had bestowed on me, it was no use. 140 00:13:02,197 --> 00:13:05,325 In vain I made the harem resound with my cries 141 00:13:06,201 --> 00:13:09,788 no help or assistance came to succor your poor friend. 142 00:13:10,289 --> 00:13:15,294 Until wearied out by struggling in defense of my innocence, 143 00:13:15,377 --> 00:13:18,463 my strength at last completely failed me 144 00:13:18,714 --> 00:13:20,465 and my powerful ravisher unrelentingly completed my undoing. 145 00:13:20,716 --> 00:13:23,218 Unrelentingly completed my undoing. 146 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,847 Oh Sylvia, your poor friend is now 147 00:13:26,847 --> 00:13:31,518 the polluted concubine of this circumcised Turk. 148 00:13:32,686 --> 00:13:36,064 You are no doubt anxious to hear how I came into his power. 149 00:13:37,983 --> 00:13:39,776 The story of my ruin is short. 150 00:13:41,236 --> 00:13:43,405 The day after I wrote to you in Portsmouth, 151 00:13:43,905 --> 00:13:47,326 upon losing sight of land, I became violently seasick 152 00:13:47,326 --> 00:13:51,413 so much so that I could not even crawl upon deck. 153 00:13:51,413 --> 00:13:54,166 In this state I continued about three weeks. 154 00:13:54,166 --> 00:13:57,252 One day I heard a most unusual noise on deck 155 00:13:57,252 --> 00:13:59,838 when on sending Eliza to learn the cause of it 156 00:13:59,838 --> 00:14:02,007 a mate told her the ship was likely to be attacked 157 00:14:02,007 --> 00:14:03,175 by Moorish pirates. 158 00:14:04,718 --> 00:14:07,929 You may easily guess our terror at this information, 159 00:14:07,929 --> 00:14:10,098 which turned out to be true. 160 00:14:10,098 --> 00:14:12,642 Shortly, the discharge of the guns 161 00:14:12,642 --> 00:14:14,186 with the shouts of the combatants 162 00:14:14,186 --> 00:14:17,189 informed us the work of destruction was begun. 163 00:14:18,190 --> 00:14:19,274 The firing continued 164 00:14:19,524 --> 00:14:21,693 for a considerable time without intermission, 165 00:14:22,361 --> 00:14:26,448 but on a sudden, the discharge of our guns was discontinued. 166 00:14:27,366 --> 00:14:29,951 When the uproar, cries and groans on deck 167 00:14:30,202 --> 00:14:32,454 became too horrid to describe, or to last long. 168 00:14:33,163 --> 00:14:34,456 Or to last long. 169 00:14:34,706 --> 00:14:37,459 On a sudden everything became quiet. 170 00:14:37,459 --> 00:14:40,629 But a rush we heard coming toward the cabin, 171 00:14:40,629 --> 00:14:44,800 oh too surely warned us of our approaching captivity. 172 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,676 In an instant, the door was burst open 173 00:14:46,676 --> 00:14:50,055 and in rushed a crowd of armed Turks covered with blood. 174 00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:52,808 Unable to longer sustain the various emotions, 175 00:14:52,808 --> 00:14:56,103 which for the last two hours I had been agitated, 176 00:14:56,103 --> 00:14:58,397 combined with the remains of my sickness 177 00:14:59,356 --> 00:15:00,899 I fainted in the arms of Eliza. 178 00:15:11,076 --> 00:15:14,746 Upon regaining my senses, I learned that we'd been captured 179 00:15:14,746 --> 00:15:17,165 by an Algerine corsair 180 00:15:17,165 --> 00:15:19,751 the pirate Abdullah spoke English very well. 181 00:15:20,710 --> 00:15:24,423 I later learned this Barbarian was a renegade Englishman. 182 00:15:25,215 --> 00:15:28,093 Oh, my country's great shame. 183 00:15:32,055 --> 00:15:34,391 - Highness, thy captain whom thy have honored by 184 00:15:34,391 --> 00:15:36,977 so appointing, would be immensely pleasured if thy would 185 00:15:36,977 --> 00:15:39,104 accept his humble gift. 186 00:15:39,104 --> 00:15:41,648 Two English females lately taken in the capture 187 00:15:41,648 --> 00:15:43,275 of the last infidel ship. 188 00:15:54,619 -->

00:23:44,714 the firing of the guns, the slaves' account 236 00:23:44,964 --> 00:23:47,342 was all trumped up to lull me to my ruin, 237 00:23:48,009 --> 00:23:51,095 all invented to throw me off my

00:24:20,500 --> 00:24:22,251 and place himself there between. 247 00:24:27,048 --> 00:24:29,717 Oh God, even now 248 00:24:30,218 --> 00:24:31,803 when it is all over, 249 00:24:32,053 --> 00:24:35,640 and recomposed as I most certainly have been, 250 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,477 for my sufferings, I tremble at the bare recollection 251 00:24:39,477 --> 00:24:41,896 of the dreadful anguish I suffered 252 00:24:41,896 --> 00:24:45,858 when he reduced my chastity to a bleeding ruin. 253 00:24:45,858 --> 00:24:47,944 I was a mere child in his arms. 254 00:24:53,866 --> 00:24:57,161 As to strength, he moved and placed me 255 00:24:57,412 --> 00:24:59,872 just as was convenient to his pleasure. 256 00:25:00,164 --> 00:25:04,752 I felt his hand where no male hand had ever touched before. 257 00:25:04,752 --> 00:25:07,922 Directly, he placed his arm around my neck 258 00:25:09,048 --> 00:25:10,425 and drew my lips to his. 259 00:25:11,259 --> 00:25:15,221 At this moment I was nearly insensible to everything he did, 260 00:25:16,139 --> 00:25:19,475 so much were my feelings overcome by fear and shame. 261 00:25:24,188 --> 00:25:27,025 But I was not doomed to remain long in this state 262 00:25:28,317 --> 00:25:30,403 for I quickly felt him enforcing his way, 263 00:25:30,403 --> 00:25:33,781 the fury that caused me to scream with anguish. 264 00:25:37,493 --> 00:25:42,415 My petitions, supplications and tears were of no use. 265 00:25:43,332 --> 00:25:46,335 I was on the altar, and butcher-like 266 00:25:46,335 --> 00:25:48,880 he was determined to complete the sacrifice. 267 00:25:55,470 --> 00:25:58,139 Indeed my cries seemed only to excite him 268 00:25:58,389 --> 00:25:59,974 to the finishing of my ruin, 269 00:26:00,933 --> 00:26:03,019 and kissing my lips with fury, 270 00:26:03,269 --> 00:26:06,606 he unrelentingly rooted up all obstacles 271 00:26:06,606 --> 00:26:07,940 my virginity offered. 272 00:26:20,870 --> 00:26:24,165 I could bear the dreadful torment no longer. 273 00:26:25,583 --> 00:26:30,546 I sunk insensibly into the arms of my cruel ravisher, 274 00:26:30,546 --> 00:26:33,382 his every movement was accompanied by-- 275 00:26:33,633 --> 00:26:35,426 - Delicious creature. 276 00:26:38,971 --> 00:26:42,767 Holy Mahomet, I thank thee. 277 00:26:45,895 --> 00:26:49,315 Oh Ali, who would be without it. 278 00:26:51,984 --> 00:26:52,819 There, 279 00:26:54,987 --> 00:26:55,822 there, 280 00:26:56,697 --> 00:26:57,615 sweet infidel. 281 00:26:59,909 --> 00:27:02,411 And many other words in the Turkish language, 282 00:27:02,411 --> 00:27:05,248 which I did not understand, until his fury 283 00:27:05,248 --> 00:27:10,044 became so cruelly teasing that I a second time fainted. 284 00:27:44,370 --> 00:27:46,330 I did not awake from the refreshing sleep 285 00:27:46,330 --> 00:27:50,168 I so soundly fell into, until late the next morning. 286 00:27:50,459 --> 00:27:53,588 Upon attempting to rise, I found I was unable from 287 00:27:53,838 --> 00:27:56,340 the dreadful stiffness of the parts. 288 00:27:57,175 --> 00:28:01,512 The slaves, Zelia and Honoria, assisted me to rise, 289 00:28:01,512 --> 00:28:04,140 bathed and fed and comforted me through the day. 290 00:28:05,349 --> 00:28:06,225 I learned that the Dey 291 00:28:06,225 --> 00:28:08,936 was not expected to return for some time. 292 00:28:11,022 --> 00:28:12,815 - Thank God. 293 00:28:13,065 --> 00:28:14,942 By nightfall I had managed to regain 294 00:28:15,193 --> 00:28:16,319 some of my composure. 295 00:28:16,569 --> 00:28:19,739 And after a light dinner served by Honoria, 296 00:28:19,739 --> 00:28:21,908 I was quite content and ready to retire. 297 00:28:31,876 --> 00:28:34,128 I had just shut my eyes 298 00:28:34,378 --> 00:28:36,756 when I felt his fierce kisses on my face, 299 00:28:37,340 --> 00:28:41,052 and soon reasoned my second martyrdom was about to commence. 300 00:28:42,220 --> 00:28:45,514 You may be assured from what I have already described of him 301 00:28:46,057 --> 00:28:47,683 that I had nothing to expect 302 00:28:47,683 --> 00:28:50,228 from supplication or entreaties. 303 00:28:51,103 --> 00:28:54,523 Still I did not fail to use them, 304 00:28:54,523 --> 00:28:57,026 supported by torrents of tears. 305 00:28:57,944 --> 00:28:59,779 These he paid no attention to, 306 00:29:02,406 --> 00:29:04,742 but crushed me to his naked chest. 307 00:29:05,117 --> 00:29:06,994 Called me foolish and silly 308 00:29:06,994 --> 00:29:09,038 to make such opposition to his pleasures. 309 00:29:57,295 --> 00:29:58,879 - Reason a little. 310 00:30:00,006 --> 00:30:01,924 Consider the indispensable necessity 311 00:30:01,924 --> 00:30:04,719 that all loving creatures like yourself are under 312 00:30:04,719 --> 00:30:08,347 to lose the sweet flower I so lately gathered from you, 313 00:30:08,347 --> 00:30:09,807 which seems so dear to you. 314 00:30:11,017 --> 00:30:14,437 Consider the great end that nature has created you for. 315 00:30:16,355 --> 00:30:18,316 Lose over those unavailing tears, 316 00:30:18,316 --> 00:30:21,402 which only delay your tasting of the sweetest joys. 317 00:30:22,778 --> 00:30:24,363 Then you talk about your virtue. 318 00:30:25,698 --> 00:30:27,908 Pray, can you tell me in what it consists? 319 00:30:29,869 --> 00:30:32,288 Do you think if I enjoy you against your will, 320 00:30:32,330 --> 00:30:34,749 you are a bit the more virtuous? 321 00:30:34,999 --> 00:30:35,791 Or, 322 00:30:36,042 --> 00:30:39,462 or is it that you're, you're so simple as to believe 323 00:30:39,462 --> 00:30:42,423 that virtue depends on any part of your beautiful body 324 00:30:42,423 --> 00:30:44,675 being a little more or a little less? 325 00:30:48,262 --> 00:30:50,973 He then made me to understand what he meant. 326 00:30:52,099 --> 00:30:54,018 Then he proceeded to place me in a position 327 00:30:54,018 --> 00:30:56,062 to satisfy his desires. 328 00:30:56,062 --> 00:30:58,647 Indeed, I found resistance of no avail. 329 00:30:59,565 --> 00:31:00,983 I cannot give you anything 330 00:31:00,983 --> 00:31:03,027 like a description of my suffering. 331 00:31:11,118 --> 00:31:13,704 It was not long, Ali was ready to resume again. 332 00:31:14,747 --> 00:31:16,457 I lay trembling, 333 00:31:16,707 --> 00:31:20,044 expecting the return of my cruel torment, 334 00:31:20,586 --> 00:31:22,213 but guess my astonishment. 335 00:31:33,557 --> 00:31:35,643 Afterwards, he tenderly kissed me. 336 00:31:38,938 --> 00:31:41,107 All his commanding and imperiousness 337 00:31:41,107 --> 00:31:44,777 had given way to respectful, impassioned regards. 338 00:31:46,529 --> 00:31:48,781 Although he still did just what he pleased, 339 00:31:49,740 --> 00:31:51,617 there was still something in his manner 340 00:31:51,617 --> 00:31:54,495 that I could not in any way account for the change. 341 00:31:56,205 --> 00:31:58,666 Spite of my love for poor Henry, 342 00:31:58,666 --> 00:32:01,544 or the repugnhance I naturally felt against the Dey 343 00:32:01,544 --> 00:32:03,587 as the violator of my chastity, 344 00:32:05,005 --> 00:32:08,259 In spite of my sufferings in his furious embraces, 345 00:32:09,427 --> 00:32:11,846 the difference of our religions and ages 346 00:32:12,805 --> 00:32:14,765 I blush to tell it. 347 00:32:15,349 --> 00:32:16,809 But I'm obliged to own, 348 00:32:17,059 --> 00:32:20,354 I felt a voluptuous softness in his kisses, 349 00:32:21,313 --> 00:32:22,606 which acted as a balm, 350 00:32:23,566 --> 00:32:26,402 soothing me for the pains I had suffered. 351 00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:31,282 You, Sylvia, who are yet, I believe 352 00:32:32,533 --> 00:32:34,535 an unexperienced maid, 353 00:32:35,119 --> 00:32:36,328 can have no conception 354 00:32:36,579 --> 00:32:38,205 of the seductive powers 355 00:32:38,205 --> 00:32:40,875 of this wonderful instrument of nature. 356 00:32:41,959 --> 00:32:45,629 This terror of virgins, the delight of women. 357 00:32:47,506 --> 00:32:49,842 Indeed, there can be no description given 358 00:32:49,842 --> 00:32:54,847 of the pure delight, I may even say agony of enjoyment. 359 00:32:54,847 --> 00:32:56,015 I was soon taught 360 00:32:56,015 --> 00:32:59,602 that it was the uncontrolled master key of my feelings. 361 00:33:00,644 --> 00:33:03,147 My trembling quickly banished, 362 00:33:03,397 --> 00:33:06,275 my confusion became breathless astonishment, 363 00:33:06,859 --> 00:33:08,777 which with the rapidity of lightning 364 00:33:09,028 --> 00:33:11,822 changed to a respect for my enjoyer 365 00:33:12,490 --> 00:33:16,660 so submissive in its nature, that I already looked upon him 366 00:33:16,660 --> 00:33:19,705 as the dispenser of my future destiny. 367 00:33:20,539 --> 00:33:23,542 And my soul became so completely resigned to him 368 00:33:24,835 --> 00:33:27,671 as securely as he enjoyed my body. 369 00:33:29,507 --> 00:33:32,384 I was totally instructed in the softest pleasure 370 00:33:32,384 --> 00:33:34,220 nature can to participate in. 371 00:33:36,138 --> 00:33:37,223 My heart, my soul, my very being was melted. 372 00:33:37,473 --> 00:33:40,476 My soul, my very being was melted. 373 00:33:42,228 --> 00:33:45,064 I swam in a sea of thrilling delight 374 00:33:45,856 --> 00:33:47,775 and enjoyment, 375 00:33:48,025 --> 00:33:51,070 only known to the young maids just escaped 376 00:33:51,070 --> 00:33:52,780 from the pangs of virginity. 377 00:33:55,449 --> 00:33:58,327 With these, all my pains and fears vanished. 378 00:33:59,620 --> 00:34:02,081 The remains of my virgin bashfulness, 379 00:34:02,665 --> 00:34:05,501 the only thing that could throw any obstacle in the way 380 00:34:05,501 --> 00:34:09,296 of my joys was soon banished by this luxurious novelty, 381 00:34:10,673 --> 00:34:13,175 which so ravishingly filled my soul 382 00:34:13,175 --> 00:34:16,971 with ecstasy and astonishment. 383 00:34:16,971 --> 00:34:19,515 Although I had scarcely summoned up courage 384 00:34:19,765 --> 00:34:21,767 to look my enjoyer in the face, 385 00:34:22,309 --> 00:34:24,144 the warmth of my caresses 386 00:34:24,395 --> 00:34:26,438 and tenderness of my Kkisses, 387 00:34:27,231 --> 00:34:28,983 the voluptuous agitation 388 00:34:29,233 -->
