On came the ape-man with never a pause, straight for the lion. "Go away, Numa," he cried, "or Tarzan will tie you up again and lead you through the jungle without food. See Arad, my spear!

During the evenings of his visit at Hidvár he had won back everything which he had lost on the occasion of his friend Hátszegi's visit at Kengyelesy, and in the joy of his heart he gave his countess carte blanche in the matter of entertaining her friends and opened his halls freely to the elegant world of Arad. For the society of Arad is distinctly elegant.

"Then God grant you plenty! By the way, does the wind still blow through the crevices of the prison door at Arad?" "It blows for him who lists to it. Let him who likes it not close his ears to it."
