108. King Felipe vs. Caos
As a royal, King Felipe, had the obligation to test the mate of her daughter: he would actually gain a lot of influence. But Felipe was hesitating despite his resolve to choose the best mate for his Daughter. After all, she was his life. This said, the fury of a father could actually be more accurate. His eyes were fierce and his mouth was grinning like teeth that could devour the very foundations of the earth. In this scenario, the lights were red and the blue of the ambiance was sparking on his spot. The thing is, it was not a common stage for the battle between the early period of history and the extreme part of history. In doing so, he was scraring everyone AHAHAH!
Caos: Señor e padre de mi señora, bien se dize que, si los omes casassen con las mugeres que merecen, mal pasarían la vida. Mas por ende conviene fablar de honra. Sabed que el cortejo, que agora llamamos galanteo, viene del latín cohors, que fue patio cercado do se ayuntaba la mesnada. Assí mesmo, la manera en que varón e muger se allegan, e cómo entran en pacto de matrimonio, non es cosa liviana nin vana.
Por tanto digo que el cimiento de mi amor por vuestra fija es limpio e verdadero. E por ello, con humildad, pido vuestra venia. (My dear father, if we men married the women we deserved, we should have a very bad time of. That means that Courtship originally derives from the Latin cohors, from which we get cohort. It meant an enclosed yard, and included the retinue of men which would assemble in such a yard. How men and women come together, how they come to be married, how they enter into the marriage covenant is not a matter of indifference. That is to say that the very honest foundation of my love for her is honest. So I take your approval.)
Felipe: ¡Ja, ja! Mucho habedes leído, mancebo. Mas en el cortejo segund la Sagrada Escritura, la autoridad del padre non es sombra, sino muro firme. E por eso dudo si podríades guardar a mi fija como conviene.
Sabed también que la ley divina non siempre demanda muerte, mas sí responsabilidad: el que seduce ha de casar, si el padre lo consiente.
Ningún mozo debe allegarse al matrimonio sin claro entendimiento de lo que es ante los ojos de Dios. ( HAHAHAH! In biblical courtship, the practical, involved authority of the father over the process is fully recognized and appreciated. That is why I doubt you could take care of my daughter well. The other thing might be that the Bible does not require death...the seducer was required to marry her if her father permitted it; therefore A young man therefore should not approach the married state without a clear concept of what it is in the sight of God.)
Caos: E por eso mesmo lo fago, señor. A Dios conozco agora con mayor claridad que nunca. Bien sé que non lo veis como yo lo veo, mas la verdad non muda por ser mirada desde alto trono.
Dízese que es verdad universal que varón con fortuna ha menester esposa; mas yo digo que varón con alma ha menester amor verdadero. Mi vida será dada por ella. Todo cuanto he fecho, por ella fue.
Si teméis por su ventura, creedme: en los infinitos senderos del ser, haré que su dicha sea tan ancha como los valles eternos de mi querer. Mucho caos ha habido en los siglos de mi andar, mas ella es orden en mi tormenta. (that is why I am doing it. I know God better than ever. The thing is, you do not see him the way I do. It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. My life shall be given to her. All I have done is for her. I guess you may be nervous and axious about this matter, but trust me, in all the infinite, that I will make her as happy as the eternal vallies of my love. For real, it has been centuries of creational Caos since I met this level of headness, but you are different.)
Felipe: Responded, pues:
¿Por qué queredes casar con mi fija e con ninguna otra?
¿Qué os faz pensar que estáis presto para ser marido?
¿Dirían vuestros padres, pastor e maestros que sois aparejado para tal estado?
¿Qué flaquezas habedes visto en mi fija? ¿Sabredes sobrellevarlas e ayudarla contra ellas?
E decidme: ¿qué veis en los cinco o diez años venideros? ¿En qué ganaréis el pan? ¿Do moraréis?
(Why do you want to marry my daughter and nobody else?
What makes you think you are ready to be a husband?
Would your parents, pastor, and mentors agree that you are ready to marry?
What have you identified as some of my daughter’s sins and weaknesses? Are you ready to deal with those? How do you expect to help her with them?
As best as you’re able, map out what you foresee for the next five to ten years. What do you expect to do for work? Where do you expect to live?)
Caos: Ja… Señor, la ganancia de toda historia es menor de lo que uno sueña, e el trabajo mayor de lo que se piensa.
Ámola con locura cuerda. Desde que la conocí, supe que sus ojos mostraban la hermosura del ánima humana.
Mis ojos, que han visto engaños e desengaños, raras vezes hallan alma que tocar non pueda quebrarla. La suya, non sólo la toca, mas la fortalece.
Non sólo me inspira, mas camina comigo en esta senda de amor, sin temer las sombras. (HAHAH! The reward you get from a story is always less than you thought it would be, and the work is harder than you imagined. I love her with follie. I have know her since I met her. Through her eyes, I saw the beauty of a human soul. My chaotic eyes see through lies and dissapointment. That is to sa that very fee people can touch my unbreakable soul. Not only does she inspire me, but she also shows up for me in this path of love.)
Felipe looked at Caos with love, thinking that this could be more than a simple quarrel. After all, this honest love could actually shake more lives than his.
Felipe: this is absurd. I cannot win against you. A father’s tears and fears are unseen, his love is unexpressed, but his care and protection remains as a pillar of strength throughout our lives. That is why my love is deep and interesting, but at the same time, it seems to be false. A father's feelings are sometimes unspoken, his fears and tears can be hidden, but his love is deeper than the ocean.
