The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Montezuma's Daughter by H. Rider Haggard: Diaz.
'He is dead.'
'How?'
I told her in few words.
'You should have slain him yourself; our son's blood is not
avenged.'
'I should have slain him, but in that hour I did not seek
vengeance, I watched it fall from heaven, and was content.
Perchance it is best so. The seeking of vengeance has brought all
my sorrows upon me; vengeance belongs to God and not to man, as I
have learned too late.'
