"Doubtless, sahib. But my place is within hail of Jimgrim. No, it is best that you see this matter through tonight between four walls. Only remember, sahib, that though a man on duty may feign sleep, it is wiser not to, because sleep steals on us unawares!" So I returned to the bedroom where Grim and Jeremy were snoring a halleluja chorus; but Yussuf Dakmar hadn't returned yet.
"And so, Jimgrim, do the kites foregather? Or are we a forlorn hope? Do we go to bury Feisul or to crown him king?" "How much do you know?" Grim answered. "Hah! More than you, my friend! I come from Europe London Paris Rome. I stopped off in Deraa to listen a while, where the tide of rumour flows back and forth across the border.
"Select the most trustworthy of your sons, O King of Thieves, give him the fastest camel, and let him ride with that to the oasis. Bid him ride hard and overtake us with the answer." "Do you think my sons have wings?" asked Ali Baba. "Not unless devils are winged!" laughed Grim. "It is a simple matter just there and back again." "Not so simple, Jimgrim!
The Syrians have been thoroughly undermined by propaganda; gas will do the rest, and as soon as the Arabs see the Syrians run they'll listen to reason. They know you, and know you're on the level. Do you understand? Will you do that?" "I will try. I see many a chance of spilling before this cup comes to the drinking, Jimgrim!" "Then carry it carefully!" Grim answered.
"As your honour pleases!" "Hospital's stuffy, isn't it? Think you could recover health more rapidly outdoors? Sick-leave continued of course, but how about a little exercise?" The Sikh's eyes twinkled. "Sahib, you know I need exercise!" "I'll speak to the doctor for you. In case he signs a new certificate, report to me tonight." "Atcha, Jimgrim sahib! Atcha!" "Hum Dekta hai"
If we submit the problem to him he will answer wrongly; but we shall then have received orders, which, as faithful men, we must not disobey. "As concerns ourselves, being men without specific orders on that point, the question is simple: Of that woman and that man, if the one must live and the other die, which shall it be? And I say Jimgrim shall live, if I die afterward even by his hand for it."
"You should have let us shoot, Jimgrim! Once I got close enough to have cut his beast's legs with my sword! You think this is like the city, where a policeman holds up a hand and men halt? Hah! Wallah! It was he who drew sword, and behold my camel's nose where he slashed at it!
