THAHN They are bad. AGMAR So you would forsake the calling. OOGNO The city is unworthy of our calling. The gods are drowsy, and all that is divine in man is dead. ULF They are drowsy in their mountains away at Marma. The seven green idols are drowsy. Who is this that rebukes us? THAHN Are you some great merchant, Master? Perhaps you will help a poor man that is starving.
Why, my Parpa never even looks at me unless I make him mad!" "S sh!" said the White Linen Nurse. "Why, you mustn't ever say a thing like that!

She comes to us at evenings away in the mountain of Marma. She trips over the mountains when she is young: when she is young and slender she comes and dances before us: and when she is old and unshapely she hobbles away from the hills. AGMAR Yet she is young again and forever nimble with youth: yet she comes dancing back. The years are not able to curb her nor to bring grey hairs to her brethren.
