Seti:
I do not care who you are or what you are or what they may say about you, but I want to hear from your own lips that you are not a traitor, that you would not lead these people in revolt against me. Tell me, Moses. I will believe you.

Moses:
I am not this deliverer you fear. I would take more than a man to lead the slaves from bondage. It would take a god. But if I could free them, I would.

Seti:
What has turned you against me? From the time my sister brought you to the court, I loved you, reared you, set you before my own son, because I saw in you a worth and a greatness above other men.

Moses:
No son could have more love for you than I.

Seti:
Then why are you forcing me to destroy you? What evil has done this to you?

Moses:
The evil that men should turn their brothers into beasts of burden, to be stripped of spirit, and hope, and strength - only because they are of another race, another creed. If there is a god, he did not mean this to be so.
