Samson and Delilah Page #4

to face a lion and fears my wrestler?

The man has done me no harm.

Fight him, Samson.

Fight him.

Like all boasters, he's a coward.

Garmiskar...let him feel the whip.

Now watch.

Garmiskar's down!

Get up Garmiskar! Get up!

He's near 400 pounds.

He threw him like a sack of grain.

The hunter's prize is yours.

One ring for two lions.

l would like to name my own prize.

Oh, yes?

What would you have...

My throne?

l would take a Philistine bride.

The girl seems willing enough.

l need men like you, if it takes a

pretty face to binds you to me...

your request is granted.

Choose your bride.

This is the woman l take.

But Semadar is promised to me.

l have given my word, Ahtur.

She is yours

and a 100 pieces of silver.

You have given me a great treasure.

Will you accept from me

the skin of the lion?

As a peace offering,

from one prince to another.

ls it wise to have

this mad dog in our city?

He might be tamed in our city.

Lord Saran.

Samson could make no trouble if...

...Ahtur brought 30 of his warriors

to the wedding feast.

This girl has the wisdom of a serpent.

Ride home together and discuss

the choice of wedding companions.

Hunt home!

Look! The feather Dance!

Feather against sword.

Feather always wins.

lt's nothing more than a witch's trick.

No man can kill a lion

with his bare hands.

Who saw him kill the beast?

You saw him throw Garmiskar.

Why aren't you entertaining

the wedding guests?

They hate him.

Because he's a Danite?

Because he's a fool.

Most man are, Delilah.

There is nothing you can do about it.

Sometimes a bee can move an ox.

A man shouldn't have to reach

at his own wedding feast.

The most desirable grapes

are always out of reach.

- Not if you reach high enough.

- Or wait long enough.

You waited too long, Ahtur.

For what?

Entertainment.

What will you choose?

Wine...

beauty...song?

l have wine.

You have beauty.

And Samson has a voice.

Sing us one of your shepherd songs,

Samson.

My singing sounds more like

the bleating of my sheep.

But l will set you a riddle.

Can he make one?

Speak up, strong man!

What riddle? Tell us!

Out of the eater came forth meat.

Out of the strong came forth sweetness.

Out of the eater came forth...

That's a fool's riddle.

Then answer it.

There's no sense to it.

Sweetness from the strong?

He's twisting words.

Riddle? Why by the seven planets,

that's no riddle at all.

lt's not a riddle without a wager.

Or without gold.

What gold can Samson wager?

There are many kinds of gold.

There is the gold in Semadar's hair.

But we won't wager that.

Then there is the gold thread of a cloak.

That l will wager.
