Orion put in; but she went on, addressing herself exclusively to Nilus, and his peers, and ignoring him completely: "Your president, the son of the Mukaukas, knows that, instead of the accused, I might, if I chose, be the accuser. But I scorn it for love of his father, and because I am more high-minded than he. He will understand!
I was unfortunately unable to make further use of Karabacek's researches as to the Mukaukas. But the lexicographer Suidas enumerates the works of Horapollo, the philologer and commentator on Greek poetry, without naming the Hieroglyphica, which is the only treatise alluded to by Stephanus.
His eloquent and stormy address was not without effect; still, the Christians, who ascribed every form of evil to the Melchite girl, would have been satisfied with her death and have been ready to forgive the son of the Mukaukas this crime supposing him to have committed it.
When men and beasts were making their way along a better pavement the merchant observed: "I knew the father of the man you were speaking of, very well. He was wealthy and virtuous; of his son too I hear nothing but good. But is he still allowed to bear the title of governor, or, what did you call him? Mukaukas?" "Certainly, Master," said the guide.
The ill-feeling which the Patriarch fostered against the Mukaukas had been aggravated to hostility by their antagonism on this matter. A musical dirge now fell on Paula's ear from the convent chapel. Was the worthy Mother Superior dead?
"Poor man!" thought the merchant as he looked after the Mukaukas. "But to a man who has such a son to carry him the saddest and hardest lot floats by like a cloud before the wind."
The governor's son hastened to his father's bedroom to beg him to lend him his ring as a token of the authority transferred to him; the Mukaukas had willingly allowed him to take it off his finger, and had enjoined him to exercise relentless severity.
His only reply was an assenting nod; Paula paused on the threshold and, turning to Katharina, she added: "You, child for you are but a child with what nameless suffering will not the son of the Mukaukas repay you for the service you have rendered him!" Then she left the room.
Then, when she heard at Alexandria that the Mukaukas was lately dead, she regarded the game as won. Now they were in Memphis, Orion was sitting before her, and the young man had invited her and her following of above twenty persons to stay in his house.
In the son and heir of George you see the future Mukaukas, while you are cherishing the insane wish to become the Mukaukas yourself." "And why should such a wish be insane?" cried the other in a harsh voice. "Putting you out of the question, who is there here that is shrewder or stronger than I?" "No Moslem, perhaps.
