SCENE 5-2 : A plea to the Almighty
On a Sabbath day Fredrick appeals for deliverance from his trauma
In this scene Frederick gets emotional in begging the Almighty to deliver him from the evil that he is subject to on a daily basis.
He waxes lyrically about seeing the freedom with which the sail boats on the Chesapeake Bay flat serenely by while he is cast in chains to the ground.
At the end of the scene he sets us up to expect a turning point in his manifest destiny.
