"Ah, so that is the trouble?" "Besides, Thou art exposing thyself for a fourth, a wicked Phoenician." The prince was confused. Whence could Sarah know of Kama, and know that she was wicked? "As dust squeezes into caskets, so scandals work into the quietest houses," said Ramses. "Who has spoken to thee of a Phoenician?" "Do I know who? My heart and an evil omen." "Then are there omens?"
