The wolf calls for more of his "puppets" to help him escape, but the man is too weak to do so. He tells the wolf that his body is already "through hell" , and that he should not try to hide it. The wolf tells him that he is the only one who can break the laws of nature that keep him in the Holy Land. He says that the only way to break them is to curse them. He adds that the curses are gifts from the devil himself. The man says that it is too late for him to ask for help from God, because the wolf has decided to serve his mission.
