"There came a wind, I understand,
That blew the boat away from land
And swept it out of sight,
And now to the emperor came the thought
That possibly his deed had not
Been absolutely right.
He stood there thinking with a frown,
Then fainted suddenly, falling down.
He was a sorry sight."
(277-285)
This quote is of importance because it is the pivoting point to the plot. Had the emperor thought about controlling his rage for just a minute longer, Emare would have never been sent away. This quote shows the importance of how anger can completely impact one's future.
