her eyes, she said to Lysander, “Go back to your life. The kids and | will make do in the countryside. If you want
to see them, you can visit. But | won't hand them over to you. If you try to take them away, I'll end my life right
in front of you. They're all | have left. Without them, there’s no point in living.”
