"It is just as you say!" said the doctor. "Tell me what it is you want for the Queen?" demanded Rin Jin. "I want the liver of a live monkey!" answered the doctor. "The liver of a live monkey!

Avali, the Gorgios don't jin it it's saw Rommany." I.e., "There was a dark woman that looked the evil eye at me this morning my son's wife and after that I heard that my son was ill. A squint-eyed man makes bad-luck. Yes, the Gorgios don't know it it's all Rommany."
Ryn Jin forgave his subject at once at the request of his august guest. The TAI was so glad that he shook his fins for joy, and he and all the other fish went out from the presence of their King, praising the virtues of the Happy Hunter.
I would as soon believe the great Prester John would marry the daughter of a Jew packman."

"I must apologize for all the trouble I am giving you by my unexpected visit." And he bowed again, and thanked the Sea King. "You need not thank me," said Ryn Jin. "It is I who must thank you for coming. Although the Sea Palace is a poor place, as you see, I shall be highly honored if you will make us a long visit."

If so, I, Ototachibana, will appease the wrath of the Sea God who desires nothing less than my husband's life!"

Now the last statement was fact for Koto had a very severe toothache at that time and the fact helped the falsehood.
