2nd Sentry: It is a very little city. Two hundred of these cities would not build Barbul-el-Sharnak. 1st Sentry: No. But it is a finer palace, and Barbul-el-Sharnak is the centre of the world; men have drawn together there. 2nd Sentry: I did not know there was a palace like this outside Barbul-el-Sharnak. 1st Sentry: It was built in the days of the forefathers. They built palaces in those days. 2nd Sentry: They must be in the jungle by now. It is quite close. How glad they were to go. 1st Sentry: Yes, they were glad. Men do not hunt for tigers in Barbul-el-Sharnak. [Enter Tharmia and Arolind weeping.] |
