"Well, I should like to know how Nalini has injured me?" "I say that he is your enemy!" "Tut, tut, you ought to be ashamed of yourself! Where could I find a brother so faithful and obedient as he? You wish to live apart from him? Very well; I have made separate arrangements for you." Then in dispassionate tones Jadu Babu pointed out the treachery of Debendra and his parasite.
They were committed for trial. She protested that she had done so from a feeling that so great a crime should not be hushed up. Nalini Babu, in his turn, put forward some witnesses for the defence; but their statements were not of material advantage to the prisoner. It was, in fact, a losing game, but he played it manfully.
The spell cast by her malice was broken. Debendra Babu in Trouble. "Who is she?" asked Nalini looking up from a law book which he was studying. "Surely you know my sister, Chota Babu?" "Yes, of course, what's the matter with her?" "She has been ill for three days, with excruciating internal pains; what am I to do, Bábuji?" "Who is treating her?" asked Nalini.
"It must have been Tennyson or was it Wordsworth? I never could keep poetry in my head." Nalini thought that an F.A. might have remembered Longfellow's Psalm of Life, but he refrained from airing superior knowledge. "Do you know any mathematics?" he inquired. "Mathematics!" replied Pulin joyously. "Why, they're my forte -I am quite at home in arithmetic, algebra, and geometry.
After dinner he took his betel box and adjourned to the parlour for rumination and a siesta. Nalini and his wife were surprised by Jadu Babu's behaviour. They dared not ask him why he had invited himself to eat with them, but waited anxiously for further developments. Meanwhile the elder wife was eating her heart with vexation and forming resolutions to give her husband a curtain lecture.
Tirtha means here a Ghat, i.e., an easy descent from the bank for access to the water. Pradhanatah is explained by the commentator to mean with foremost of Vedic mantras. Mandakini is that part of the river Ganga which flows through Kailasa, while Nalini is a celebrated lake owned by the king of the Yakshas, so called because of the lotuses which occur there in plenty.
When the villagers saw Hiramani so thick with the Basu ladies, they prophesied ill-luck for the family, and on learning Jadu Babu's resolve they remarked that the old woman had not belied her reputation. As for Nalini, he knew that something was in the wind, but carefully avoided broaching the subject to his brother, lest he should widen the breach.
"Why, Doctor," I replied, "it is a skeleton for your observation!" Convulsed with mirth, my brother-in-law and I were hard put to it to maintain the proper decorum before our assembled relatives. As the years went on, Dr. Bose endeared himself to our family, who called on him whenever illness arose. He and I became fast friends, often joking together, usually with Nalini as our target.
Soon after Ananta's passing, my younger sister Nalini was brought back from death's door by a divine healing. Before relating the story, I will refer to a few phases of her earlier life. The childhood relationship between Nalini and myself had not been of the happiest nature. I was very thin; she was thinner still.
Don't trouble about his fees; I will pay them myself. Why did you not come to me earlier?" Sadhu muttered some words, which Nalini could not distinguish, and left the room hurriedly. After waiting for an hour for news, Nalini threw a wrapper over his shoulders and went to Siráji's cottage.
