Gascoyne, The Sandal Wood Trader

CHAPTER XXX
3/15

I have said that I don't know where we are going to, but I am pretty safe in assuring you that we are going somewhere.

Why we are going I am forbidden to tell,--divulge, I think Henry called it; but what that means I don't know.

I can only guess it's another word for tell; and yet it can't be that either, for you can speak of _telling_ lies, but you can't speak of _divulging_ them.

However, that don't matter.

But I'm not forbidden to tell you why I'm going away.
