One of the unattached travellers gives me a note of introduction to Mohammed. Ali Khan, the Governor of Peri, a suburban village of Khoi, which I expect to reach some time this afternoon.
Human nature could scarcely be proof against an appeal wherein endearment and reproach are so beautifully and harmoniously blended, and it always brings me back to a level with his horse. Reaching the suburbs of Khoi, I am initiated into a new departure new to myself at this time of Persian sanctimoniousness.
There were two Bushmen in the camp, who had turned up but the day before and I made Kambala bring the small, pot-bellied men to where I sat. I knew their "talk." "The baas with the scarred face," I said; "whither went he?" "No! no!" they answered in their clicking tongue, "we know not! Who knows? Not we 'Khoi Khoian." Therefore, answer me where is he, that scarred one?"
Among other questions he asks if the Koords didn't molest me when coming through Koordistan without an escort; and upon hearing the story of my adventure with the Koordish shepherds between Ovahjik and Khoi, he seems greatly amused. Another large party of horsemen arrived with the Shah, swelling the company to perhaps two hundred attendants.
Their anxiety is all unnecessary, however, for away off on the eastern horizon can be observed clusters of familiar black dots that awaken agreeable reflections of the night spent in the Koordish camp between Ovahjik and Khoi.
Tsui Goab is composed of two roots, tsu and goa. Goa means 'to go on, 'to come on. In Khoi Khoi goa-b means 'the coming on one, the dawn, and goa-b also means 'the knee. Dr. 'but we have to adopt the other metaphorical meaning, the approaching day, i.e. the dawn. Where is the necessity?
