So our recent talk with young Perion seems very improbable." "Why, but do you not remember, too, that I ran away in the night when Maugis d'Aigremont stormed Storisende? and was never heard of any more? and that all this, too, took place a long, long while ago? Yet we have met as three fine young fellows, here on the beach of fabulous Leuke.
And in fine, they kept at him until Jurgen was too confused to argue, and his head was in a whirl, and one thing seemed as preposterous as another: and he ceased to notice any especial improbability in his traveling with the Equinox, and so passed without any further protest or argument about it, from Cocaigne to Leuke.
The other birds were ring-doves, turtles, and the little "butcher" impaling, gaily as a "gallant Turk," its live victim upon a long thorn. But both these cities were large and important centres, both of agriculture and of mining industry, forming crucial stations on the great Nabathaan highway, the overland between Leuke Kome and Petra.
And the people of Leuke were created after the image of Koshchei who made yet other things as they are: therefore do the people of Leuke do that which is customary, adhering to classical tradition. Do you think upon that also! Then do you pick your side in this war, remembering that you side with stupidity either way.
Then Jurgen cried farewell to fallen Leuke; and scornfully he cried farewell to the Philistines and to their devices. Then he submitted to their devices. Thus, it was without making any special protest about it that Jurgen was relegated to limbo, and was despatched to the Hell of his fathers, two days before Christmas.

He turned to Melissa, and, as she owned to having read the work of the philosopher, he went on "You know, then, that I was the model for his Achilles. The departed spirit of the hero is enjoying in the island of Leuke, in the Pontus, the rest which he so richly deserves, after a life full of heroic deeds.
Do you speak of the King of Prussia? Has he then made himself King of Saxony?" Before anyone had time to answer the queen's painful questions, the door was opened, and the king's ministers entered; beside them was to be seen the pale, terrified countenance of Count Leuke, the king's chamberlain. Slowly and silently these gentlemen passed through the room and approached the queen.
Well, have you obeyed the king's command, Count Leuke? Have you been to the King of Prussia and received the passports?" "I was with the King of Prussia," said the count, in a faltering voice. "Well, what more?" "He refused me! He does not give his consent to this visit." "Listen, listen!" said the queen, wildly; "hear the fresh insult thrown at our crown!
"But Leuke seems like any other country in autumn, and appears to be reasonably free from the fantastic animals and overgrown flowers which made the other paradises look childish. Come now, there is an attractive simplicity about Leuke. I might put up with Leuke if the local by-laws allowed me a rational amount of discomfort." "Discomfort you would have full measure.
