Don't you know that you're handsome? Do you know what I've always told
Ellen? That you're a prince in disguise.
HEATHCLIFF
You did?
CATHY
I said your father was Emperor of China, your mother an Indian queen. It's
true, Heathcliff. You were kidnapped by wicked sailors and brought to England.
But I am glad they did it. Because I've always wanted to know somebody
of noble blood.
HEATHCLIFF
All the princes I ever read about had castles.
CATHY
Of course, they captured them! You must capture one,too. There's a beautiful
castle that lies waiting for your lance, sir prince.
HEATHCLIFF
You mean Peniston Crag?
CATHY
Yes!
HEATHCLIFF
Oh,that's just a rock.
CATHY
If you can't see that that's a castle, you'll never be a prince, Heathcliff. Here,take
your lance and charge! See that black knight waiting at the drawbridge?
Challenge him! Now charge! Charge! Charge! Charge!
