Get the address and send a messenger for Mrs. Blackwell." Sybil was on her knees by the bedside of the giri, holding Betty's hand in both of her own. "You poor, poor girl," she cried softly. "It is dreadful." She had sunk her head into the worn and dirty covers of the bed. Kennedy reached over and took hold of her arm. "She will be all right, soon," he said reassuringly.
Starting as Right Reason, Giri has, in my opinion, often stooped to casuistry. It has even degenerated into cowardly fear of censure. I might say of Giri what Scott wrote of patriotism, that "as it is the fairest, so it is often the most suspicious, mask of other feelings." Carried beyond or below Right Reason, Giri became a monstrous misnomer.

This is the chief festival of the Bengali year and lasts for nine days around the end of September. Both PUJAS are sacred to Durga, literally "the Inaccessible," an aspect of Divine Mother, Shakti, the female creative force personified. GIRI is a classificatory distinction of one of the ten ancient Swami branches. SRI means "holy"; it is not a name but a title of respect.
We chuckled together over the improbability of these two cosmic events. "Giri Bala has never sought an inaccessible solitude for her yoga practices," Lambadar Babu went on. "She has lived her entire life surrounded by her family and friends. They are all well accustomed now to her strange state. Not one of them who would not be stupefied if Giri Bala suddenly decided to eat anything!
