She ordered the dwarf to impart to her what he knew, and the little man told her at last, after sincere efforts at resistance for he feared for his mother's safety that Paaker had administered half of a love-philter to Nefert, and that the remainder was still in his hands.
Was it possible that she should love her husband, when his breach of faith troubled her so little? Did her heart still belong to another? Or had the love-philter set him in the place of Mena? Yes! yes! for how warmly she greeted him. She put out her hand to him while he was still quite far off, let it rest in his, thanked him with feeling, and praised his fidelity and generosity.
Since his conversation with Nemu, and the dwarf's interpretation of his dream, the path which he must tread to reach his aim had been plain before him.
