"'Thou can'st not deny this charge! exclaimed the infuriated monarch. "'Not so, replied the chief bonze, 'I will not! If thou carest to believe the slanderous words which Klan Hua has uttered, and such that not one in this barge will dare to repeat, so be it! "Yu Chan withdrew from his seat at the monarch's side, and taking his rival's place pointed to the one he had himself vacated.

An hour the men worked, and then the women cleared away the coal. 'It is farther than I thought, said Janki. 'The air is very bad; but strike, Kundoo, strike hard.
