And hearing them, the unforbearing Bhima, in wrath suddenly approaching that prince like a Himalayan lion upon a jackal, loudly and chastisingly rebuked him in these words, Wicked-minded villain, ravest thou so in words that are uttered alone by the sinful?
Stand forth, Edric Streorn, for thou art the man, and my sword shall prove it, if need be." "Edmund, thou ravest," cried the king; "produce thy witnesses." "Alfgar, son of Anlaf, answer; whom didst thou espy talking with Sweyn?" "Edric Streorn." "How didst know him?"

"Thou art mad!" she said, a quiver of alarm in her voice ... "Mad as Khosrul, and all his evil-croaking brethren! I offer thee Love, and thou pratest of death, life is here in all the fulness of the now, for thy delight, and thou ravest of an immortal Hereafter which is not, and can never be!
