He is domineering and violent, and will allow no one's will to cross his; but I bore everything, and always obeyed him, often against my better judgment.

About sixteen months afterwards I came back to Syria, and we travelled through the country together; but by this time I did not choose to be the mere tool of my brother's will, for I had grown prouder, and it seemed to me that the father of my child ought not to be subservient, even to his own brother.
