BUT OH! NOW I WANT A MAN, ONE OF MY BOYS, TO STAND BY ME AND FIGHT AGAINST ALL ODDS!


I am a fighter and must die fighting, not give way — that is why I get crazy at the boys. I don't ask them to fight, but not to hinder my fight.

I don't grudge my fate. But oh! now I want a man, one of my boys, to stand by me and fight against all odds!
