But my curiosity went no further nor did I question her, for in my world was no place for women. So she led me on at haste despite the dark like one that was sure of her whereabouts until I suddenly espied a dim light that shone out from the open lattice of what I judged to be a small hedge-tavern. Here my companion halted suddenly and pointed to the light. "Go!" she whispered.
