Prince, I brought the letter because I must.

Also a copy of it has gone, I believe, to Idernes the Satrap at Sais.

It is better to face the truth, Prince, and I think that I may be of more service to you alive than dead.

If you do not wish to send the lady Amada to the King, marry her to someone else, after which he will seek her no more." He looked at me shrewdly and said, "To whom then?

"Also I have high blood in me and having brought much gold from the East, am rich again and one accustomed to war." "So you have brought gold from the East! How?
Well, you can tell me afterwards.

But you fly high.
