Yes, I would go.

But now my heart pulled another way.

There was but one whom I loved in the world--it was my sister Baleka.

My father had betrothed her to the chief of a neighbouring tribe, but I knew that this marriage was against her wish.
Perhaps my sister would run away with me if I could get near her to tell her that I was going.

I would try--yes, I would try.
I waited till the darkness came down, then I rose from my bed of weeds and crept like a jackal towards the kraal.
