6/33 Passing Eive as I turned towards Eveena's room, and fevered with intense thirst, I bade her bring me thither a cup of the carcara. I need not dwell on the terribly painful moments in which I bound round Eveena's arm a bracelet prized above all the choicest ornaments she possessed. To calm her agitation and my own by means of the charny, I sought the keys. They were not at my belt, and I asked, "Have I returned them to you ?" "Certainly not," said Eveena, startled. "Can you not find them ?" At this moment Eive entered the room and presented me with the cup for which I had asked. |
