However, Amur’s son, Zeidar, has fallen in love with their beautiful captive and begs his father to give her up to the approaching Spanish, if only to save the town from destruction.
Imidlertid har Amurs søn, Zeidar, forelsket sig i deres smukke fange og han beder sin far om at overhænde hende til spanierne, om ikke for andet så for at redde byen fra ødelæggelse.
