Ah, you would not be my wife!" "You shall die, Durga Ram," she replied, "and it will be the death of a pariah dog." "Ah! Still that spirit which I loved.

Why, did I not buy you without knowing who you were?
Are you not mine?
At this very moment I could place you in my zenana and who would ever know?
And soon you would not want any one to know." "Are you without mercy ?" "Mercy?
I know not the word.

But I have an ambition which surpasses all other things.

My wife you shall be, or worse.

But legally, always legally!" He laughed again and swiftly caught her in his arms.
