Ackazárpses: But you must not tremble, for your raiment is now perfect; yet if you tremble, alas! who may say how it will hang? Queen: They are such huge, terrible men. Ackazárpses: O the raiment, the raiment; you must not, you must not! Queen: O I cannot bear it. I cannot bear it. There is Rhádamandáspes, that huge, fierce soldier, and the terrible Priest of Horus, and... and... O I cannot see them, I cannot see them. Ackazárpses: Lady, you have invited them. Queen: O say I am ill, say I am sick of a fever. Quick, quick, say I have some swift fever and cannot see them. |
