Until I met you and Grace it was the only evidence I possessed that I had a heart. Can you wonder? He was the first one that ever showed me any real kindness.

"Yes, Martina; but what of it?" "You are dull, Olaf. I have heard that these Easterns love music, especially if it be of a sort they do not know. Why, therefore, should not a blind man and his daughter no, his orphaned niece earn an honest living as travelling musicians in Egypt?
