She restores the eyes of girlhood to the elder women, who have long been weary with yearning after dead little ones after dead men. She has taught the little people who cannot think the child-hearted people that Love-the-transcendent can never die! "Dhoop Ki Dhil? She is youth, eternal! She is motherhood the divine lotus of the world!"
Dhoop Ki Dhil had come out into this blind maze to find and save the heat-blighted child from that death. He knew what that death was like he had seen a big snake kill a goat once, in the circus, for food. . . . The frost in his bones bit deeper, because this was Dhoop Ki Dhil the wonder-woman who was in there, somewhere close to that snake.
The gods, all-beneficent, have preserved him Jiwan Kawi, the man of men! He met her in the night-paths; and he goes now with her to her own people. Jiwan Kawi, the man of men! The Grass Jungles are in her heart, like dead rose-leaves; their perfume in her blood, is forever before the gods remembering Son of Power and his guardian. Dhoop Ki Dhil touches their holy feet.
All the way to the edge of the great Grass Jungle, where they had come in, a multitude went before and after establishing the tradition of their deliverance. Finally Cadman asked the people why they spoke no word of Dhoop Ki Dhil, excepting as to things finished. The people bowed their heads and one answered for them all: "It is finished. When we of the Grass Jungle mourn, we do not use words."
The native was exceptionally good to look upon. Dhoop Ki Dhil came into the place to make some purchase. Her eye fell on the jungle man and she stood back. She was a valuable customer, so the silk-merchant made haste to signal her forward. But she shook her head and moved further back." The Doctor stopped to smoke.
The people were beside themselves with joy. But presently Dhoop Ki Dhil came out, looking straight up. Her hands were palm to palm, reaching slowly upward from her breast to their full stretch; there she gently opened them apart. A perfect hush fell on all. "The child is gone," Cadman said, in an undertone. Then the people began a low chant. It was not mourning.
Certainly Cadman would never forget the length of time he had seen the looming head less than two feet from Skag's face the incredible power that flamed up out of the young man's eyes. Certainly Skag was full of content as to the safety of the people. But all realisations were lost in a gnawing depression about Dhoop Ki Dhil.
Dhoop Ki Dhil did not walk, she did not run; but her glide was almost as swift as Dhanah's flight. When Skag met her face to face, he shivered with a shock of realisation her ineffable beauty glowed like coals in a trance of some unearthly devotion. Her human mind was not there an incomparable calm reigned in its stead. "Come!" he urged strangely.
It was like a deadly pall. This was no new terror; it was old devastation bred into the bone of consciousness. A little girl came near to watch Cadman, who was getting out his gun. She had never seen one before. He whispered to her it seemed not right to speak aloud in this place and asked her where was Dhoop Ki Dhil.
Then searching them both earnestly with haggard eyes, he spoke direct: "Have you looked on Dhoop Ki Dhil, for whom you come so far? Have you heard her voice?" Both the Americans shook their heads. "Will you look on her in the paths of my understanding? Will you render yourselves to know her in the currents of my blood?" "We will," Cadman answered tensely.
