"Terkadang dia membayangkan bagaimana rasanya terbang, hidup di sungai, berlari seperti kuda. Dia telah memimpikan kebebasan itu, kekuatan itu, dan takut keliaran dalam dirinya yang ingin hidup seperti binatang buas, digerakkan murni oleh kebutuhan dan keinginan. Dia merasa terpecah antara panasnya anggota badan dan pikiran-pikiran dalam benaknya yang mengatakan padanya untuk berhati-hati dan baik dan selalu tenang. Jangan berteriak atau menangis, jangan lari ke arahnya dan lemparkan dirimu di kakinya, memintanya untuk membawamu dalam pelukannya, jangan menanggalkan pakaianmu dan lari telanjang ke air, liar dengan keinginan."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Sometimes she has imagined what it would be like to fly, to live in the river, to run like a horse. She has dreamed of that freedom, that power, and fears the wildness in herself that wants to live as beasts live, moved purely by need and desire. She has felt torn between the heat of her limbs and the thoughts in her mind telling her to be careful and good and always calm. Don't scream or cry, don't run to him and throw yourself at his feet, pleading for him to take you in his arms, don't strip off your clothes and run naked to the water, wild with wanting.
