• Francisco Delfino 'Pancho' : I'm leaving again tomorrow.

  Dona Rosita Garcia : Leaving?

  Francisco Delfino 'Pancho' : Yes, I - I'm going north for my Uncle.

  Dona Rosita Garcia : But, you will return?

  Francisco Delfino 'Pancho' : Because of the anxiety in your voice, I shall burn up the highway in my eagerness to get back.

• Dona Rosita Garcia : Listen to me, it wasn't only to warn you that I sent for you tonight. It was because I can't go on like this anymore. I had to touch you, to feel you near. Oh, I must be near you, Pancho! Take me with you.

  Francisco Delfino 'Pancho' : I wish I could. But, I love you too much. There's a price on my head and there isn't a Padre in all of California that would marry us.

  Dona Rosita Garcia : Then, take me anyway!

• Francisco Delfino 'Pancho' : Since I left here, I've learned many things. I've learned that I'm a foreigner, without any rights, that our people are being cheated, robbed of their lands and their homes. In the northern part of the state I've seen them driven out like dogs! With titles to their lands either stolen or destroyed.

  Dona Rosita Garcia : But, Pancho, such conditions cannot last. The American Government will not allow it. You must have patience.

  Francisco Delfino 'Pancho' : Patience? You wouldn't say that if you'd seen what I had.
