In the story "The Princess and the Puma," O. Henry tells the story of a woman called Josefa, a man called Givens, and their encounter with a puma. In the story, O. Henry draws on several themes, events and characters from myths and other traditional stories.
For example, O. Henry draws on the theme of love, as he shows how far the two people are willing to go with their lies and their tales in order to protect their image in front of the person they love.
O. Henry also draws on an event common in myths, which is the fight between hero and beast. However, instead of the hero of this story succeeding, he is saved by a woman. This is a new take on a traditional subject.
Finally, O. Henry draws upon characters such as princesses, knights and lions that come from traditional stories and applies them in a modern Mexican setting.
In Act 1
Ragueneau and Le Bret discuss Cyrano's nose. They are joking if the nose is real or not, and Le Bret responds "He keeps it on, - and cleaves in two any man who dares remark on it!"
"He keeps it on" simply means it really is his nose
and "cleaves in two" he will fight anyone who makes fun or "dares remark on it."
