-▁It ▁took ▁the ▁best ▁part ▁of ▁the ▁morning .
-▁When ▁this ▁was ▁acc om pl ished ▁the ▁journey ▁to ▁All ah a ▁was ▁beg un .
-▁But ▁for ▁the ▁days ▁of ▁p e ace ▁and ▁qu i et ▁of ▁the ▁w il der n ess ▁and ▁the ▁con se qu ent ▁h ard n ess ▁of ▁her ▁f les h , ▁K ath ly n ▁would ▁have ▁suff ered ▁great ly .
-▁Half ▁the ▁time ▁she ▁was ▁comp ell ed ▁to ▁wal k .
-▁There ▁was ▁no ▁how d ah , ▁and ▁it ▁was ▁a ▁difficult ▁fe at ▁to ▁sit ▁back ▁of ▁the ▁ma hout .
-▁The ▁ro u gh ▁sk in ▁of ▁the ▁ele ph ant ▁had ▁the ▁same ▁effect ▁upon ▁the ▁cal ves ▁of ▁her ▁legs ▁that ▁sand p ap er ▁would ▁have ▁had .
-▁Sometimes ▁she ▁st um b l ed ▁and ▁f ell , ▁and ▁was ▁r ude ly ▁j er ked ▁to ▁her ▁feet .
-▁Only ▁the ▁day ▁before ▁they ▁arrived ▁was ▁she ▁rel ie ved ▁in ▁any ▁way : ▁she ▁was ▁given ▁a ▁lit ter , ▁and ▁in ▁this ▁man ner ▁she ▁ent ered ▁the ▁h ate ful ▁city .
-▁In ▁giving ▁her ▁the ▁lit ter ▁the ▁ch ie f ▁ma hout ▁had ▁been ▁ins p ired ▁by ▁no ▁expressions ▁of ▁p ity ; ▁simply ▁they ▁desired ▁her ▁to ▁appear ▁f res h ▁and ▁at tract ive ▁when ▁they ▁carried ▁her ▁into ▁the ▁s l ave ▁m art .
-▁In ▁f it ful ▁d ream s ▁all ▁that ▁had ▁happened ▁came ▁back ▁to ▁her - - the ▁st ory ▁her ▁f ather ▁had ▁to ld ▁about ▁s av ing ▁the ▁old ▁king ' s ▁life , ▁and ▁the ▁gr im , ▁ir on ical ▁gr at itude ▁in ▁m ak ing ▁Col on el ▁H are ▁his ▁he ir - - as ▁if ▁such ▁th ings ▁could ▁be !
-▁And ▁then ▁her ▁o wn ▁journey ▁to ▁All ah a ; ▁the ▁night m ar ish ▁dur b ar , ▁during ▁which ▁she ▁had ▁been ▁c rown ed ; ▁the ▁ esc ape ▁from ▁the ▁ord eal s ▁with ▁John ▁B ru ce ; ▁the ▁terr ors ▁of ▁the ▁te m ple ▁of ▁the ▁sun ; ▁the ▁flight ▁from ▁there ▁. ▁. ▁.
-▁John ▁B ru ce !
-▁She ▁could ▁still ▁see ▁the ▁f ire ▁in ▁his ▁eyes ; ▁she ▁could ▁still ▁feel ▁the ▁to uch ▁of ▁his ▁g ent le ▁yet ▁t ire les s ▁hand .
-▁W ould ▁she ▁ever ▁see ▁him ▁again ?
-▁On ▁the ▁way ▁to ▁the ▁m art ▁they ▁passed ▁under ▁the ▁sh ad ow ▁of ▁the ▁gr im ▁pr is on ▁walls ▁of ▁the ▁p al ace .
-▁The ▁ele ph ants ▁ve ered ▁off ▁here ▁into ▁a ▁side ▁st re et , ▁toward ▁the ▁hu ge ▁square ▁where ▁horses ▁and ▁c att le ▁and ▁ele ph ants ▁were ▁bought ▁and ▁sold .
-▁The ▁lit ter , ▁in ▁charge ▁of ▁the ▁ch ie f ▁ma hout , ▁proceed ed ▁to ▁the ▁s l ave ▁m art .
-▁K ath ly n ▁g l anced ▁at ▁the ▁wall , ▁won der ing .
-▁W as ▁her ▁f ather ▁al ive ?
-▁W as ▁he ▁in ▁some ▁ble ak ▁c ell ▁be h ind ▁that ▁cr um b l ing ▁m ason ry ?
-▁D id ▁he ▁know ▁that ▁she ▁was ▁here ?
-▁O r ▁was ▁he ▁really ▁de ad ?
-▁A h , ▁per h aps ▁it ▁were ▁better ▁that ▁death ▁should ▁have ▁taken ▁him - - bet ter ▁that ▁than ▁having ▁his ▁living ▁he art ▁w run g ▁by ▁the ▁t ale ▁of ▁his ▁da u gh ter ' s ▁un sp e ak able ▁mis er ies .
-▁E ven ▁as ▁she ▁s ent ▁a ▁last ▁l ing ering ▁look ▁at ▁the ▁pr is on ▁the ▁pr is oner ▁within , ▁his ▁he ad ▁b ur ied ▁in ▁his ▁th in ▁w ast ed ▁hands , ▁be he ld ▁her ▁in ▁a ▁vis ion - - b ut ▁in ▁a ▁happ y , ▁j oy ous ▁vis ion , ▁bus ying ▁about ▁the ▁living ▁room ▁of ▁the ▁b un g al ow .
-▁And ▁far ▁away ▁a ▁younger ▁man ▁be he ld ▁a ▁vis ion ▁as ▁very ▁t end er ly ▁he ▁g az ed ▁at ▁K ath ly n ' s ▁disc ard ed ▁ro b e ▁and ▁res umed ▁his ▁determined ▁quest .
-▁Often , ▁standing ▁bes ide ▁his ▁even ing ▁fi res , ▁he ▁would ▁ask ▁the ▁s il ence , ▁" K ath ly n , ▁where ▁are ▁you ?"
-▁E ven ▁then ▁he ▁was ▁r iding ▁f ast ▁toward ▁All ah a .
-▁A ▁s l ave ▁m art ▁is ▁a ▁ra re ▁th ing ▁these ▁days , ▁but ▁at ▁the ▁time ▁these ▁sc en es ▁were ▁being ▁en act ed ▁there ▁exist ed ▁many ▁of ▁them ▁here ▁and ▁there ▁across ▁the ▁f ace ▁of ▁the ▁g l ob e .
-▁M en ▁buy ▁and ▁sell ▁men ▁and ▁women ▁these ▁times - - en light en ed , ▁so ▁they ▁say - - b ut ▁they ▁do ▁it ▁by ▁leg al ▁con tract ▁or ▁from ▁v ile ▁h iding ▁places .
-▁All ah a ▁had ▁been ▁a ▁fam ous ▁m art ▁in ▁its ▁prime .
-▁It ▁had ▁drawn ▁the ▁ag ents ▁of ▁prin ces ▁from ▁all ▁over ▁Ind ia .
-▁P ers ia , ▁B el oo ch istan , ▁A f gh an istan , ▁and ▁even ▁sou ther n ▁R uss ia ▁had ▁been ▁r if l ed ▁of ▁their ▁be a ut ies ▁to ▁ad or n ▁the ▁z en an as ▁of ▁the ▁s l oth ful ▁H ind u ▁prin ces .
-▁The ▁s l ave ▁m art ▁in ▁the ▁cap it al ▁town ▁of ▁All ah a ▁st ood ▁in ▁the ▁center ▁of ▁the ▁b az a ars , ▁a ▁great ▁square ▁platform ▁with ▁a ▁ro o f , ▁but ▁open ▁on ▁all ▁four ▁sides .
-▁Here ▁the ▁s l aves ▁were ▁ex h ib it ed , ▁the ▁po or ▁th ings ▁int end ed ▁for ▁d all ian ce ▁and ▁those ▁who ▁were ▁to ▁struggle ▁and ▁sw eat ▁and ▁d ie ▁under ▁the ▁over se er ' s ▁l as h .
-▁E very ▁for t n ight ▁a ▁day ▁was ▁set ▁as ide ▁for ▁the ▁business ▁of ▁the ▁m art .
-▁O wn ers ▁and ▁pro s pect ive ▁buy ers ▁met , ▁che w ed ▁bet el - n ut , ▁smok ed ▁their ▁h ook as , ▁s ip ped ▁coffee ▁and ▁tea , ▁and ▁ex ch anged ▁the ▁t att le ▁of ▁the ▁hour .
-▁It ▁was ▁as ▁much ▁an ▁am use ment ▁as ▁a ▁business ; ▁indeed , ▁it ▁was ▁the ▁or ient al ▁idea ▁of ▁a ▁cl ub , ▁and ▁much ▁the ▁same ▁th ings ▁were ▁discussed .
-▁Thus , ▁A pp aj i ▁bought ▁a ▁be a ut if ul ▁g ir l ▁at ▁the ▁last ▁bar ter ▁and ▁Ro y a ▁found ▁a ▁male ▁who ▁was ▁a ▁good ▁juggler , ▁and ▁only ▁night ▁before ▁last ▁they ▁had ▁trad ed .
-▁The ▁b az a ars ▁were ▁not ▁what ▁they ▁used ▁to ▁be .
-▁D e w an ▁Al i ▁had ▁sold ▁his ▁w ife ▁to ▁a ▁P un j ab ▁op i um ▁m erch ant .
-▁A un ut ▁S ing h ' s ▁da u gh ter ▁had ▁run ▁away ▁with ▁the ▁s on ▁of ▁a ▁b he est e e .

-▁And ▁no ▁one ▁read ▁the ▁s l ok as , ▁or ▁mor al , ▁stan z as , ▁any ▁more .
-▁Yes , ▁the ▁English ▁would ▁come ▁some ▁day , ▁when ▁there ▁would ▁be ▁enough ▁money ▁to ▁w ar r ant ▁it .
-▁All ▁about ▁there ▁were ▁bar k ers , ▁and ▁fruit ▁sell ers , ▁and ▁b angle ▁wall as ▁( for ▁s l ave ▁girls ▁should ▁have ▁r ings ▁of ▁r up e e ▁s il ver ▁about ▁their ▁an k les ▁and ▁wr is ts ), ▁and ▁so lem n ▁B ra h m ins , ▁and ▁men ▁who ▁p ain ted ▁red ▁and ▁oc her ▁ca ste ▁marks ▁on ▁one ' s ▁f ore he ad , ▁and ▁as h ▁covered ▁f ak ir s ▁with ▁w it he red ▁hands , ▁Na ut ch ▁girls , ▁girls ▁from ▁the ▁b az a ars , ▁per ip at etic ▁j e w el ers , ▁k it es , ▁and ▁red - he ad ed ▁v ult ures - - th is ▁being ▁a ▁pro per ▁place ▁for ▁them .
-▁The ▁ch ie f ▁ma hout ▁pur ch ased ▁for ▁K ath ly n ▁a ▁be a ut if ul ▁sa ree , ▁or ▁ve il , ▁which ▁part ially ▁conce al ed ▁her ▁f ace ▁and ▁ha ir .
-▁" C hal u ! " ▁he ▁said , ▁to uch ing ▁K ath ly n ' s ▁should er , ▁whe ne ver ▁she ▁l ag ged , ▁for ▁they ▁had ▁disp ens ed ▁with ▁the ▁lit ter , ▁" G o ▁on ! "
-▁She ▁under st ood .
-▁O ut ward ly ▁she ▁app e ared ▁pass ive ▁enough , ▁but ▁her ▁sou l ▁was ▁on ▁f ire ▁and ▁her ▁eyes ▁as ▁b r ill i ant ▁as ▁those ▁of ▁the ▁cir cl ing , ▁who oping ▁k it es , ▁wat ching ▁that ▁m om ent ▁which ▁was ▁to ▁off er ▁some ▁lo oph o le .
-▁On ▁through ▁the ▁no is y ▁b az a ars , ▁the ▁object ▁of ▁many ▁a ▁curious ▁rem ark , ▁so met imes ▁ins ult ed ▁by ▁the ▁p ain ted ▁women ▁at ▁the ▁window s , ▁so met imes ▁j ested ▁at ▁by ▁the ▁ id l ers ▁a round ▁the ▁m erch ants ' ��bo oth s .
-▁V ag ue ly ▁she ▁w ond ered ▁if ▁some ▁one ▁of ▁her ▁an ces t ors ▁had ▁not ▁been ▁ter rib ly ▁w ick ed ▁and ▁that ▁she ▁was ▁pay ing ▁the ▁p en al ty .
-▁It ▁seem ed ▁to ▁her , ▁however , ▁that ▁a ▁f il m ▁of ▁st e el ▁had ▁g rown ▁over ▁her ▁n er ves ; ▁nothing ▁start l ed ▁her ; ▁she ▁sens ed ▁only ▁the ▁wat ch ful n ess ▁she ▁had ▁often ▁noted ▁in ▁the ▁cap t ives ▁at ▁the ▁far m .
-▁At ▁length ▁they ▁came ▁out ▁into ▁the ▁bus y ▁m art .
-▁The ▁old ▁ma hout ▁con gr at ul ated ▁him self ▁upon ▁the ▁do c ility ▁of ▁his ▁find .
-▁It ▁would ▁st if f en ▁the ▁b id ding ▁to ▁ann ounce ▁that ▁she ▁was ▁g ent le .
-▁He ▁even ▁went ▁so ▁far ▁as ▁to ▁pat ▁her ▁on ▁the ▁should er .
-▁The ▁st e el ▁f il m ▁did ▁not ▁cover ▁all ▁her ▁n er ves , ▁so ▁it ▁would ▁seem ; ▁the ▁pat ted ▁should er ▁was ▁v ul ner able .
-▁She ▁win ced , ▁for ▁she ▁read ▁clearly ▁enough ▁what ▁was ▁in ▁the ▁mind ▁back ▁of ▁that ▁to uch .
-▁She ▁had ▁made ▁her ▁pl ans .
-▁To ▁the ▁man ▁who ▁pur ch ased ▁her ▁she ▁would ▁assume ▁a ▁me ek n ess ▁of ▁sp ir it ▁in ▁order ▁to ▁l ull ▁his ▁wat ch ful n ess .
-▁To ▁the ▁man ▁who ▁pur ch ased ▁her ▁. ▁. ▁.
-▁K ath ly n ▁H are !
-▁She ▁la ug hed .
-▁The ▁old ▁man ▁be h ind ▁her ▁n od d ed ▁appro ving ly , ▁he aring ▁the ▁sound ▁but ▁not ▁sens ing ▁its ▁import .
-▁A h , ▁when ▁the ▁m om ent ▁came , ▁when ▁the ▁fo ol ▁who ▁bought ▁her ▁started ▁to ▁lead ▁her ▁home , ▁she ▁would ▁beg u ile ▁him ▁and ▁at ▁the ▁first ▁sign ▁of ▁care les s n ess ▁she ▁would ▁tr ust ▁to ▁her ▁he els .
-▁She ▁k new ▁that ▁she ▁was ▁going ▁to ▁run ▁as ▁ne ver ▁a ▁w oman ▁ran ▁before ; ▁back ▁to ▁the ▁be ast s ▁of ▁the ▁j un gle , ▁who ▁at ▁least ▁made ▁no ▁eff ort ▁to ▁m ol est ▁her ▁so ▁long ▁as ▁she ▁k ep t ▁out ▁of ▁their ▁way .
-▁W il d ▁and ▁be a ut if ul ▁she ▁was ▁as ▁the ▁old ▁ma hout ▁turn ed ▁her ▁over ▁to ▁a ▁profess ional ▁sell er .
-▁" C ir c ass ian ! "
-▁" F rom ▁the ▁nor th ! "
-▁" A ▁b r ide ▁from ▁the ▁des ert ! "
-▁" A ▁yellow - h air ! "
-▁" A ▁da u gh ter ▁of ▁the ▁nor th ▁se as ! "
-▁The ▁old ▁ma hout ▁squ at ted ▁close ▁by ▁and ▁r ub b ed ▁his ▁hands .
-▁He ▁would ▁be ▁a ▁rich ▁man ▁that ▁night ; ▁bags ▁of ▁r up e es ; ▁a ▁well ▁that ched ▁house ▁to ▁cover ▁his ▁gra y ▁ha ir s ▁till ▁that ▁day ▁they ▁placed ▁him ▁on ▁the ▁p y re ▁at ▁the ▁b urning ▁g h at .
-▁The ▁go ds ▁were ▁good .
-▁D ur ga ▁R am , ▁known ▁familiar ly ▁as ▁U mb all a , ▁at ▁this ▁hour ▁came ▁forth ▁into ▁the ▁sun sh ine , ▁bro o ding .
-▁He ▁was ▁not ▁in ▁a ▁happ y ▁fra me ▁of ▁mind .
-▁Many ▁th ings ▁lay ▁he av y ▁upon ▁his ▁sou l ; ▁but ▁among ▁these ▁th ings ▁there ▁was ▁not ▁one ▁n am ed ▁rem or se .
-▁To ▁have ▁brought ▁about ▁all ▁these ▁fa il ures ▁this ▁thought ▁ir ked ▁him ▁most .
-▁Here ▁was ▁a ▁c rown ▁almost ▁within ▁reach ▁of ▁his ▁gre ed y ▁f ing ers , ▁the ▁water ▁to ▁T an tal us .
-▁To ▁have ▁un d erest im ated ▁this ▁yellow ▁ha ired ▁youn g ▁w oman , ▁he ▁who ▁k new ▁women ▁so ▁well - - the re ▁lay ▁the ▁bit ter ▁st ing .
-▁He ▁had ▁been ▁too ▁im p et uous ; ▁he ▁should ▁have ▁wa it ed ▁till ▁all ▁her ▁f ears ▁had ▁been ▁all ayed .
-▁That ▁spa wn ▁of ▁S iv a , ▁the ▁mil it ary , ▁was ▁ins ol ent ▁again , ▁and ▁r up e es ▁to ▁cross ▁their ▁p al ms ▁were ▁sc arce .
-▁Wh it her ▁had ▁she ▁blown ?
-▁W as ▁she ▁de ad ?
-▁W as ▁she ▁al ive ?
-▁The ▁wh ite ▁h un ter ▁had ▁not ▁returned ▁to ▁his ▁c amp ▁yet , ▁but ▁the ▁s ly ▁A h m ed ▁was ▁there .
-▁The ▁per p et ual ▁g lo om ▁on ▁the ▁f ace ▁of ▁the ▁lat ter ▁was ▁re ass uring ▁to ▁U mb all a .
-▁A h m ed ' s ▁ma st er ▁had ▁not ▁found ▁her .
-▁To ▁w ring ▁the ▁wh ite ▁man ' s ▁he art ▁was ▁so met hing .
-▁He ▁d ared ▁not ▁put ▁him ▁out ▁of ▁the ▁way ; ▁too ▁many ▁k new .
-▁And ▁the ▁coun c il ▁was ▁begin ning ▁to ▁g row ▁un eas y .
-▁How ▁long ▁could ▁he ▁hold ▁them ▁in ▁le as h ?
-▁What ▁a ▁w oman !
-▁A s ▁magn ific ent ▁as ▁the ▁da u gh ter ▁of ▁F i ro z , ▁sh ah ▁of ▁D el h i .
-▁F ear ▁she ▁k new ▁not .
-▁At ▁one ▁m om ent ▁he ▁lo ved ▁her ▁with ▁his ▁whole ▁sou l , ▁at ▁another ▁he ▁h ated ▁her , ▁long ed ▁to ▁get ▁her ▁into ▁his ▁hands ▁again , ▁to ▁wre ak ▁his ▁v en ge ance ▁upon ▁her ▁for ▁the ▁hum ili ation ▁she ▁had ▁by ▁w it ▁and ▁cou ra ge ▁he ap ed ▁upon ▁him .
-▁" I ▁am ▁read y ! "
-▁He ▁could ▁he ar ▁it ▁yet .
-▁When ▁they ▁had ▁led ▁her ▁away ▁to ▁the ▁ord eal s - - " I ▁am ▁read y ! "
-▁A ▁w oman , ▁and ▁not ▁a f ra id ▁to ▁d ie !
-▁M one y !
-▁How ▁to ▁get ▁it !
-▁He ▁could ▁not ▁pl un ge ▁his ▁hand ▁into ▁the ▁treas ury ; ▁there ▁were ▁too ▁many ▁about , ▁too ▁many ▁t ong ues .
-▁But ▁Col on el ▁H are ▁k new ▁where ▁the ▁s il ver ▁basket ▁lay ▁h id den , ▁he ap ed ▁with ▁go ld ▁and ▁pre ci ous ▁stones ; ▁and ▁tor t ure ▁could ▁not ▁w ring ▁the ▁h iding - place ▁from ▁him .
-▁M ay ▁he ▁be ▁d am n ed ▁to ▁the ▁n et her most ▁he ll !
-▁Let ▁him , ▁D ur ga ▁R am , ▁but ▁b ury ▁his ▁le an ▁hands ▁in ▁that ▁treasure , ▁and ▁D ar ak a ▁sw all ow ▁All ah a ▁and ▁all ▁its ▁k ings !
-▁R ub ies ▁and ▁p ear ls ▁and ▁e mer al ds , ▁and ▁a ▁far ▁c ount ry ▁to ▁ id le ▁in , ▁to ▁be ▁f eted ▁in , ▁to ▁be ▁fa wn ed ▁upon ▁for ▁his ▁r ic hes !
-▁And ▁R am ab a i ▁and ▁his ▁w ife , ▁P und it a , ▁let ▁them ▁be w are ; ▁let ▁them ▁remain ▁w ise ly ▁in ▁their ▁house ▁and ▁m ed dle ▁not ▁with ▁aff airs ▁of ▁state .
-▁" A ▁thousand ▁r up e es ! "
-▁U mb all a ▁look ed ▁up ▁with ▁a ▁start .
-▁Un con s ci ous ly ▁he ▁had ▁w and ered ▁into ▁the ▁s l ave ▁m art .
-▁He ▁sh ru gg ed ▁and ▁would ▁have ▁passed ▁on ▁but ▁for ▁the ▁st range , ▁un us ual ▁figure ▁standing ▁on ▁the ▁platform .
-▁A ▁go ld en ▁ha ired ▁w oman ▁with ▁ne ck ▁and ▁ar ms ▁like ▁Ch ines e ▁b ron ze ▁and ▁d ress ed ▁in ▁a ▁sk irt ▁of ▁gr ass !
-▁He ▁pa used .
-▁" T w o ▁thousand ▁r up e es ! "
-▁" Wh at ! " ▁j e ered ▁the ▁profess ional ▁sell er .
-▁" F or ▁an ▁hour i ▁from ▁par ad ise ?
-▁O ▁y e ▁of ▁we ak ▁he ar ts , ▁what ▁is ▁this ▁I ▁he ar ?
-▁T w o ▁thousand ▁r up e es ? - - for ▁an ▁hour i ▁f it ▁to ▁d w ell ▁in ▁the ▁z en an a ▁of ▁he av en ! "
-▁A ▁k een - ey ed ▁M oh amm ed an ▁ed ged ▁cl os er ▁to ▁the ▁platform .
-▁He ▁st ared ▁and ▁su cked ▁in ▁his ▁bre ath .
-▁He ▁found ▁him self ▁pulled ▁two ▁ways .
-▁He ▁had ▁no ▁money , ▁but ▁he ▁had ▁know l edge .
-▁" Wh o ▁sells ▁this ▁ma id en ?" ▁he ▁asked .
-▁" M oh amm ed ▁G h ori ."
-▁" Wh ich ▁is ▁he ?"
-▁" He ▁squ ats ▁there ."
-▁The ▁M oh amm ed an ▁stop ped ▁and ▁to u ched ▁the ▁old ▁ma hout ▁on ▁the ▁should er .

-▁B id ," ▁sat ir ical ly .
-▁" T w o ▁thousand ▁r up e es ! " ▁sh out ed ▁the ▁profess ional ▁sell er .
-▁" I ▁have ▁no ▁go ld , ▁but ▁m y ▁ma st er ▁will ▁give ▁10 ,000 ▁r up e es ▁for ▁y on der ▁ma id .
-▁Q u ick !
-▁O ld ▁fo ol , ▁be ▁qu ick ! "
-▁" B e g one , ▁thou ▁be gg ar ! "
-▁And ▁the ▁old ▁man ▁sp at .
-▁" M e m - s ah ib ," ▁the ▁M oh amm ed an ▁called ▁out ▁in ▁English , ▁" d o ▁not ▁look ▁toward ▁me , ▁or ▁all ▁will ▁be ▁lost .

-▁Take ▁care !
-▁I ▁go ▁to ▁in form ▁A h m ed .
-▁B ru ce ▁S ah ib ▁has ▁not ▁returned ."
-▁K ath ly n , ▁when ▁she ▁he ard ▁that ▁v o ice , ▁sh ut ▁her ▁eyes .
-▁U mb all a ▁had ▁drawn ▁cl os er .
-▁There ▁was ▁so met hing ▁about ▁this ▁half ▁ve il ed ▁s l ave ▁that ▁st ir red ▁his ▁re col le ction .
-▁Where ▁had ▁he ▁se en ▁that ▁gra ce ful ▁po ise ?
-▁The ▁clear n ess ▁of ▁the ▁sk in , ▁th ough ▁d ark ; ▁the ▁round n ess ▁of ▁the ▁thro at ▁and ▁ar ms . ▁. ▁. ▁.
-▁" T h ree ▁thousand ▁r up e es ! "
-▁The ▁old ▁ma hout ▁pur red ▁and ▁sm o ot hed ▁his ▁p al ms ▁together .
-▁Three ▁thousand ▁r up e es , ▁a ▁ra j ah ' s ▁r ans om !
-▁He ▁would ▁o wn ▁his ▁ele ph ant ; ▁his ▁w ife ▁should ▁r ide ▁in ▁a ▁g il d ed ▁p alan qu in , ▁and ▁his ▁children ▁should ▁we ar ▁shoes .
-▁Three ▁thousand ▁r up e es !
-▁He ▁fold ed ▁his ▁ar ms ▁and ▁walked ▁g ently ▁to ▁and ▁f ro .
-▁" F ive ▁thousand ▁r up e es ! " ▁said ▁U mb all a , ▁im p ell ed ▁by ▁he ▁k new ▁not ▁what ▁to ▁make ▁this ▁b id .
-▁A ▁r ip ple ▁of ▁sur pr ise ▁ran ▁over ▁the ▁c row d .
-▁The ▁re gent , ▁the ▁power ful ▁D ur ga ▁R am , ▁was ▁b id ding ▁in ▁person ▁for ▁his ▁z en an a .
-▁K ath ly n ' s ▁n er ves ▁t ing l ed ▁with ▁life ▁again , ▁and ▁the ▁su d den ▁b oun ding ▁of ▁her ▁he art ▁st if l ed ▁her .
-▁U mb all a !
-▁She ▁was ▁su re ly ▁lost .
-▁So oner ▁or ▁later ▁he ▁would ▁re c og n ize ▁her .
-▁The ▁ma hout ▁st ood ▁up , ▁de light ed .
-▁He ▁was ▁indeed ▁for t un ate .
-▁He ▁s ala am ed .
-▁" H u z oor , ▁she ▁is ▁g ent le ," ▁he ▁said .
-▁The ▁high - ca ste ▁who ▁had ▁b id ▁3 ,000 ▁r up e es ▁s ala am ed ▁also .
-▁" H igh n ess , ▁she ▁is ▁y our s ," ▁he ▁said .
-▁" I ▁can ▁not ▁b id ▁again st ▁m y ▁re gent ."
-▁It ▁was ▁the ▁custom ▁to ▁mark ▁a ▁pur ch ased ▁s l ave ▁with ▁the ▁ca ste ▁of ▁her ▁pur ch as er .
-▁U mb all a , ▁still ▁not ▁re c og n iz ing ▁her , ▁w av ed ▁her ▁as ide ▁toward ▁the ▁B ra h min ▁ca ste ▁mark ers , ▁one ▁of ▁wh om ▁da ub ed ▁her ▁f ore he ad ▁with ▁a ▁yellow ▁triangle .
-▁H er ▁blue ▁eyes ▁p ier ced ▁the ▁curious ▁brown ▁ones .

-▁" M any ▁r up e es . ▁B ring ▁him ▁to ▁the ▁house ▁of ▁D ur ga ▁R am ."
-▁This ▁in ▁case ▁Al i ▁fa il ed .
-▁The ▁B ra h min ' s ▁eyes ▁tw ink l ed .
-▁H er ▁H ind ust an i ▁was ▁exec ra ble , ▁but ▁" s ah ib " ▁and ▁" r iver " ▁were ▁pl ain ▁to ▁his ▁understanding .
-▁There ▁was ▁but ▁one ▁s ah ib ▁by ▁the ▁river , ▁and ▁he ▁was ▁the ▁wh ite ▁h un ter ▁who ▁had ▁res c u ed ▁the ▁van ished ▁qu een ▁from ▁the ▁ord eal s .
-▁He ▁n od d ed ▁almost ▁im per cept ib ly .
-▁In ward ly ▁he ▁sm il ed .
-▁He ▁was ▁not ▁above ▁giving ▁the ▁ha u ght y ▁up st art ▁a ▁Th ug ge e ' s ▁tw ist .
-▁He ▁spoke ▁to ▁his ▁ne igh b or ▁qu i et ly , ▁ass ign ed ▁to ▁him ▁his ▁b ow ls ▁and ▁b r us hes , ▁rose , ▁and ▁made ▁off .
-▁" F ollow ▁me ," ▁said ▁U mb all a ▁to ▁the ▁happ y ▁ma hout .
-▁P res ently ▁he ▁would ▁have ▁his ▁bags ▁of ▁s il ver , ▁b r ight ▁and ▁tw ink l ing .
-▁F ate ▁over to ok ▁Al i , ▁who ▁in ▁his ▁m ad ▁race ▁to ▁H are ' s ▁c amp ▁f ell ▁and ▁bad ly ▁sp ra ined ▁his ▁an k le .
-▁M o aning , ▁less ▁from ▁the ▁p ain ▁than ▁from ▁the ▁attend ant ▁he l pl ess n ess , ▁he ▁was ▁carried ▁into ▁the ▁h ut ▁of ▁a ▁k ind ly ▁r y ot ▁and ▁there ▁min ist ered ▁to .
-▁The ▁B ra h min , ▁however , ▁filled ▁with ▁gre ed ▁and ▁a ▁s ly ▁hum or , ▁re ac hed ▁his ▁d est in ation ▁in ▁s af ety .
-▁N atur ally ▁c un ning , ▁double ▁t ong u ed , ▁s ly , ▁in gr ati ating , ▁after ▁the ▁man ner ▁of ▁all ▁B ra h m ins , ▁who ▁will ▁sin k ▁to ▁any ▁base ▁le vel ▁in ▁order ▁to ▁att ain ▁their ▁equ iv o cal ▁ends ▁his ▁action s ▁were ▁un h amp ered ▁by ▁any ▁sense ▁of ▁t re ac her y ▁toward ▁U mb all a .

-▁The ▁B ra h min ▁ch uck l ed ▁as ▁he ▁pa used ▁at ▁the ▁edge ▁of ▁B ru ce ' s ▁c amp .
-▁A ▁f at ▁purse ▁lay ▁y on der .
-▁He ▁appro ac hed , ▁his ▁out ward ▁de me an or ▁a ▁mixture ▁of ▁pr ide ▁and ▁hum ility .
-▁B ru ce ▁had ▁returned ▁but ▁half ▁an ▁hour ▁before , ▁mind ▁we ary , ▁b one ▁t ired .
-▁He ▁sat ▁with ▁his ▁he ad ▁in ▁his ▁hands , ▁his ▁el b ow s ▁pro pp ed ▁upon ▁his ▁k ne es .
-▁H is ▁youn g ▁he art ▁was ▁he av y .
-▁He ▁had ▁se ar ched ▁the ▁be w il der ing ▁j un gle ▁as ▁one ▁might ▁search ▁a ▁pl ot ▁of ▁gr ass ▁before ▁one ' s ▁door , ▁bl ade ▁by ▁bl ade .
-▁A ▁hundred ▁times ▁he ▁had ▁found ▁tra ces ▁of ▁her ; ▁a ▁hundred ▁times ▁he ▁had ▁called ▁out ▁her ▁name , ▁only ▁to ▁be ▁mo cked ▁and ▁g ib bered ▁at ▁by ▁a pes .
-▁She ▁had ▁van ished ▁like ▁a ▁per f ume , ▁like ▁a ▁cl ou d ▁sh ad ow ▁in ▁the ▁wind .
-▁H is ▁sou l ▁was ▁bit ter ; ▁for ▁he ▁had ▁buil t ▁many ▁d ream s , ▁and ▁always ▁this ▁f air ▁ha ired ▁g ir l ▁had ▁r id den ▁upon ▁them .
-▁So ▁straight ▁she ▁st ood , ▁so ▁cal m ▁in ▁the ▁eyes , ▁man n ered ▁with ▁that ▁g ent l en ess , ▁known ▁of ▁the ▁b ra ve . ▁. ▁. ▁.
-▁G one , ▁and ▁sk illed ▁as ▁he ▁was ▁in ▁j un gle ▁l ore , ▁he ▁could ▁not ▁find ▁her .
-▁" S ah ib , ▁a ▁B ra h min ▁desi res ▁a ud ience ."
-▁" A s k ▁him ▁what ▁he ▁wants ."
-▁" I t ▁is ▁for ▁the ▁s ah ib ' s ▁ear ▁alone ."
-▁" A h ! ▁B ring ▁him ▁to ▁me ▁qu ick ly ."
-▁The ▁B ra h min ▁appro ac hed , ▁s ala am ed .
-▁" Wh at ▁do ▁you ▁w ish ?"
-▁B ru ce ▁asked ▁curt ly .
-▁" A ▁thousand ▁r up e es , ▁H u z oor ! " ▁bl and ly .
-▁" A n d ▁what ▁have ▁you ▁that ▁is ▁worth ▁that ▁many ▁r up e es ?" ▁ir rit ab ly .
-▁The ▁B ra h min ▁s ala am ed ▁again .
-▁" H u z oor , ▁a ▁s l ave ▁this ▁day ▁was ▁pur ch ased ▁by ▁D ur ga ▁R am , ▁U mb all a , ▁so - called . ▁She ▁has ▁sk in ▁the ▁col or ▁of ▁old ▁t us ks , ▁and ▁eyes ▁like ▁t ur qu o ise , ▁and ▁l ip s ▁like ▁the ▁fl ame ▁of ▁the ▁j un gle , ▁and ▁ha ir ▁like ▁the ▁s ands ▁of ▁G anges , ▁m other ▁of ▁r iv ers ."
-▁B ru ce ▁was ▁upon ▁his ▁feet , ▁al ive , ▁e ag er .

-▁" I s ▁this ▁w oman ▁wh ite ?" ▁h ars h ly .
-▁" H u z oor , ▁the ▁women ▁of ▁All ah a ▁are ▁always ▁d ark ▁of ▁ha ir ."

-▁" T o ▁D ur ga ▁R am , ▁the ▁king ▁without ▁a ▁c rown , ▁H u z oor . ▁It ▁is ▁worth ▁a ▁thousand ▁r up e es ," ▁sm iling .
-▁" T ell ▁me ," ▁said ▁B ru ce , ▁still ing ▁the ▁t re mor ▁in ▁his ▁v o ice , ▁" t ell ▁me , ▁did ▁she ▁follow ▁him ▁without ▁a ▁struggle ?"
-▁" Yes . ▁But ▁would ▁a ▁struggle ▁have ▁done ▁any ▁good ?"
-▁B ru ce ▁took ▁out ▁his ▁wall et ▁and ▁c ounted ▁out ▁a ▁thousand ▁r up e es ▁in ▁B ank ▁of ▁Ind ia ▁notes .
-▁" N ow , ▁l ist en .
-▁U mb all a ▁must ▁not ▁know ▁that ▁I ▁know .
-▁On ▁y our ▁he ad , ▁remember ."
-▁" H u z z or , ▁the ▁word ▁of ▁a ▁B ra h min ."
-▁" A h , ▁yes ; ▁but ▁I ▁have ▁l ived ▁long ▁here . ▁Where ▁is ▁Al i ?" ▁c ried ▁B ru ce , ▁turn ing ▁to ▁one ▁of ▁his ▁men .
-▁" He ▁went ▁into ▁the ▁city ▁this ▁morning , ▁S ah ib , ▁and ▁has ▁not ▁returned ."
-▁" C ome ," ▁said ▁B ru ce ▁to ▁the ▁wa it ing ▁B ra h min , ▁" W e ' ll ▁return ▁together ."
-▁He ▁now ▁f el t ▁no ▁ex c ite ment ▁at ▁all ; ▁it ▁was ▁as ▁if ▁he ▁had ▁been ▁im m ers ed ▁in ▁ice ▁water .
-▁It ▁was ▁K ath ly n , ▁not ▁the ▁least ▁dou b t ▁of ▁it , ▁bought ▁and ▁sold ▁in ▁the ▁s l ave ▁m art .
-▁M is ery , ▁deg rad ation ▁. ▁. ▁. ▁then ▁he ▁sm il ed .
-▁He ▁k new ▁K ath ly n ▁H are .
-▁If ▁he ▁did ▁not ▁come ▁to ▁her ▁a id ▁qu ick ly ▁she ▁would ▁be ▁de ad .
-▁Now , ▁when ▁U mb all a ▁took ▁her ▁into ▁his ▁house , ▁K ath ly n ▁was ▁determined ▁to ▁re ve al ▁her ▁ id ent ity .
-▁She ▁had ▁passed ▁through ▁the ▁ord eal s ; ▁she ▁was , ▁in ▁law , ▁a ▁qu een , ▁with ▁life ▁and ▁death ▁in ▁her ▁hands .
-▁" Do ▁not ▁to uch ▁me ! " ▁she ▁c ried ▁slowly ▁in ▁English .
-▁U mb all a ▁st e pp ed ▁back .
-▁" I ▁am ▁K ath ly n ▁H are , ▁and ▁if ▁all ▁the ▁world ▁is ▁not ▁made ▁up ▁of ▁lies ▁and ▁w ick ed n ess , ▁I ▁am ▁the ▁qu een ▁you ▁y ourse lf ▁made .
-▁I ▁can ▁sp e ak ▁a ▁fe w ▁words , ▁enough ▁to ▁make ▁m y self ▁known ▁to ▁the ▁popul ace .
-▁I ▁will ▁make ▁a ▁bar g ain ▁with ▁you .
-▁I ▁will ▁give ▁you ▁five ▁times ▁five ▁thousand ▁r up e es ▁if ▁you ▁will ▁de l iver ▁me ▁s af ely ▁in ▁P es h a wer .
-▁On ▁m y ▁part , ▁I ▁pro m ise ▁to ▁say ▁nothing , ▁nothing ."
-▁U mb all a ▁raised ▁both ▁his ▁hands ▁in ▁a st on ish ment .
-▁He ▁k new ▁now ▁why ▁that ▁form ▁had ▁st ir red ▁his ▁re col le ction .
-▁" Y ou ! "
-▁He ▁la ug hed ▁and ▁cl a pp ed ▁his ▁hands ▁to ▁summ on ▁his ▁serv ants .
-▁K ath ly n , ▁realiz ing ▁that ▁it ▁was ▁use les s ▁to ▁att e mpt ▁to ▁move ▁this ▁man , ▁turn ed ▁and ▁started ▁to ▁run , ▁but ▁he ▁inter cept ed ▁her .
-▁" M y ▁qu een , ▁m y ▁b r ide ▁that ▁was ▁to ▁be , ▁the ▁go ld en ▁hour i ! ▁F ive ▁times ▁five ▁thousand ▁r up e es ▁would ▁not ▁purchase ▁a ▁ha ir ▁of ▁y our ▁he ad ."
-▁" I ▁am ▁y our ▁qu een ! "
-▁But ▁she ▁said ▁it ▁without ▁he art .
-▁" Wh at !
-▁Do ▁you ▁bel ie ve ▁that ?
-▁H av ing ▁passed ▁the ▁ord eal s ▁you ▁n ull if ied ▁the ▁effect ▁by ▁run ning ▁away .
-▁You ▁will ▁be ▁whatever ▁I ▁choose !
-▁O h , ▁it ▁will ▁be ▁leg ally ▁done .
-▁You ▁shall ▁go ▁with ▁me ▁to ▁the ▁coun c il , ▁and ▁the ▁four ▁of ▁us ▁shall ▁dec ide .
-▁A h , ▁you ▁would ▁not ▁be ▁m y ▁w ife ! "
-▁" Y ou ▁shall ▁d ie , ▁D ur ga ▁R am ," ▁she ▁repl ied , ▁" and ▁it ▁will ▁be ▁the ▁death ▁of ▁a ▁p ari ah ▁do g ."
-▁" A h !
-▁St ill ▁that ▁sp ir it ▁which ▁I ▁lo ved .
-▁Wh y , ▁did ▁I ▁not ▁buy ▁you ▁without ▁knowing ▁who ▁you ▁were ?
-▁A re ▁you ▁not ▁m ine ?
-▁At ▁this ▁very ▁m om ent ▁I ▁could ▁place ▁you ▁in ▁m y ▁z en an a ▁and ▁who ▁would ▁ever ▁know ?
-▁And ▁so on ▁you ▁would ▁not ▁want ▁any ▁one ▁to ▁know ."
-▁" Are ▁you ▁without ▁m er cy ?"
-▁" M er cy ?
-▁I ▁know ▁not ▁the ▁word .
-▁But ▁I ▁have ▁an ▁am b ition ▁which ▁sur p ass es ▁all ▁other ▁th ings .
-▁M y ▁w ife ▁you ▁shall ▁be , ▁or ▁wor se .
-▁But ▁leg ally , ▁always ▁leg ally ! "
-▁He ▁la ug hed ▁again ▁and ▁sw ift ly ▁ca u ght ▁her ▁in ▁his ▁ar ms .
-▁She ▁stru ggl ed ▁like ▁a ▁t ig ress , ▁but ▁without ▁av a il .
-▁He ▁covered ▁her ▁f ace ▁and ▁ne ck ▁with ▁k is ses , ▁then ▁th r ust ▁her ▁as ide .
-▁" P oor ▁little ▁fo ol !
-▁If ▁you ▁had ▁wh ined ▁and ▁wh im p ered ▁I ▁should ▁have ▁let ▁you ▁go ▁long ▁since .
-▁But ▁there ▁b urns ▁within ▁you ▁a ▁sp ir it ▁I ▁must ▁con qu er , ▁and ▁con qu er ▁I ▁will ! "
-▁K ath ly n ▁st ood ▁p ant ing ▁again st ▁a ▁pill ar .
-▁H ad ▁she ▁he ld ▁a ▁we ap on ▁in ▁her ▁hand ▁she ▁would ▁have ▁k illed ▁him ▁without ▁comp un ction , ▁as ▁one ▁cr us hes ▁a ▁po is on ous ▁v ip er .
-▁" L e g ally !
-▁Wh y , ▁all ▁the ▁cr imes ▁in ▁H ind ▁are ▁done ▁under ▁that ▁word .
-▁It ▁is ▁the ▁sh ib b ol eth ▁of ▁the ▁B rit ish ▁R aj .
-▁L e g ally !
