So the captains of my ships plough the seas, and bring me honest returns; so Malluch follows the youth, our master, and will" just then a footstep was heard upon the terrace "Ha, Esther! said I not so? He is here and we will have tidings. For thy sake, sweet child my lily just budded I pray the Lord God, who has not forgotten his wandering sheep of Israel, that they be good and comforting.
An old palm-tree dominated the angle of the inlet; turning to the left at the foot of the tree, Malluch clapped his hands and shouted, "Look, look! The Orchard of Palms!"
"I have a message for you, O sheik," he said, availing himself of a moment he supposed favorable for the speech "a message from Simonides, the merchant." "Simonides!" ejaculated the Arab. "Ah! 'tis well. May Abaddon take all his enemies!" "He bade me give thee first the holy peace of God," Malluch continued; "and then this despatch, with prayer that thou read it the instant of receipt."
If there are advantages really important, I want them." "I see, I see!" said Malluch. "A line dropped from the centre of the axle is what you want." "Thou hast it; and be glad, Malluch it is the last of my commissions. Let us return to the dowar." At the door of the tent they found a servant replenishing the smoke-stained bottles of leben freshly made, and stopped to refresh themselves.
You left my door the other day with what seemed a denial of the claims which I have just allowed in the broadest terms; but it was not so, indeed it was not. Esther is witness that I recognized you; and that I did not abandon you, let Malluch say." "Malluch!" exclaimed Ben-Hur.
Then in an undertone, as if to himself, he added, "I may attend the Circus myself." When Malluch after the customary benediction given and received was gone, Simonides took a deep draught of milk, and seemed refreshed and easy of mind. "Put the meal down, Esther," he said; "it is over." She obeyed. "Here now." She resumed her place upon the arm of the chair close to him.
"He rode the same great white camel, and gave him the same name Balthasar, the Egyptian." "It is a wonder of the Lord's!" Ben-Hur spoke with excitement. And Malluch, wondering, asked, "Why so?" "Balthasar, you said?" "Yes. Balthasar, the Egyptian." "That was the name the old man gave us at the fountain today." Then, at the reminder, Malluch became excited.
And when at length he was completely recovered "My first lesson in the synagogue was the Shema; my next was the saying of the son of Sirach, 'Honor thy father with thy whole soul, and forget not the sorrows of thy mother." The red spots on Ben-Hur's face deepened. "The words bring my childhood back again; and, Malluch, they prove you a genuine Jew. I believe I can trust you."
Malluch kept watch on his companion as they went, and saw that for the moment at least his good spirits were out. To the people passing he gave no attention; over the wonders they came upon there were no exclamations; silently, even sullenly, he kept a slow pace. The truth was, the sight of Messala had set Ben-Hur to thinking.
The old man's heart has been aching sore ever since, and he nurses his wrath, and takes pleasure in its daily growth." "He can do nothing, Malluch." "Well," said Malluch, "that involves another explanation, which I will give you, if we can draw nearer. But see! the hospitality of the sheik begins early the children are speaking to you."
