Nothing is taken out of his spirit. I, myself, Mother, have submitted myself to many box-pictures, both mounted and standing beside my horse. If at any time again the Zenana Doctor Sahiba desires to make a box-picture of him do not snatch the child away but send the picture to me. I cannot see him in my dreams because at his age he changes with each month.
"And you permit this bazaar-tamasha in your compound?" Deenah observed that this was not an affair upon which he could speak to the Sahiba, his mistress. Meanwhile Carlin watched Deenah's eyes fill with the keen reds of bloody memory. "Go away, Margaret," Carlin said. "He will talk to me. Please go now. In six breaths he will be back in his trance again " So it happened.
"Alas, sahib! The Rani Sahiba bade return to look for him when the foe were driven back, but none were found alive save a wounded Darwani, who had seen Chatar Sahib's body thrown over a horse and carried away." "My dear, I wish you would take that unfortunate young Gerrard in hand."
She could have bitten out her tongue with mortification a moment afterward for letting any such admission escape her. She heard him chuckle as he drank he choked from chuckling, and set the jar down to cough. Then, when he had recovered breath again, he answered almost patronizingly. "Which would be least pleased with you, sahiba? The Rangars, or thy father, or the other Englishman?
She was alone in a cell with Jaimihr, and she could get out of it if she would name her terms! She must name them she must hurry what were they? What were her terms? She could not think. "Understand, sahiba. Certain things are sure. It is sure my men will come. It is sure that every Rangar on this rock will meet a very far from pleasant death "
Deenah considered well, in soft tones saying presently that he could not accomplish this thing alone, but must advise with his fellow-servants who were trustworthy. In fact, if the Kabuli could come this afternoon when the Sahiba and the Hakima would be away and tell his story once more, in the presence of the utterly reliable among the servants all might be brought to pass.
One early morning as she crossed the market-place, Carlin saw a strange elephant there with his mahout; and a messenger approached deferentially, asking if she were the Hakima, and if she could lead the way to Annesley Sahiba. . . . Four hours' journey away this was the messenger's story a native prince whose dignity included the keeping of one elephant, an honourable dispensation from Indian Government, had called in great need for the ministration of the Hakima, and that of her friend, Annesley Sahiba for lo, unto him a child was to be born.
He swore, and he swore vengeance; but he swore, too, that there was no woman in the East so worth a prince's while as this one, who dared flout him with her riding-whip before his men! "Sahiba!" he said, sidling close to her again, and bowing in the saddle in mock cavalier humility.
But never mind, sahiba, we are friends. I have proved that we are friends. Never have I taken water from the hands of any man or any woman not of my own caste. I would have died sooner. It was only thou, sahiba, who could make me set aside my caste." "Let me pass!" She certainly was frightened now.
She was thinking more of the awful things those Moslem gentlemen would say about her should they come and discover her in Jaimihr's cell. "Listen, sahiba! From end to end of India thy people are either dead, or else face to face with death. There is no escape anywhere for any man or woman no hope, no chance. The British doom is sealed. So is the doom of every man who dared to side with them."
