“’Sh!” was the first sound that came from her. “Don’t make a noise or you’ll frighten my friend. She’s nervous already.”

The
CITY OF COMRADES

BY
BASIL KING

Author of
“THE INNER SHRINE” “THE WILD OLIVE”
“THE WAY HOME” “THE HIGH HEART” ETC.

I dream’d in a dream, I saw a city invincible to the attacks of the whole of the rest of the earth;

I dream’d that was the new City of Friends;

Nothing was greater there than the quality of robust love—it led the rest;

It was seen every hour in the actions of the men of that city,

And in all their looks and words.

—Walt Whitman.
