She answered, “and the bridegroom from afar

Has come to bear her with him to his home.

This is the third day of the festival.”

Then Sia-Manto prayed with tearful eyes,

Saying, “A token bear to her from me;”

And from his finger drew and gave the ring

Exchanged with Guje-Zare in his dream.

The old dame took a kerchief many-hued,

Put raisins in it, and with them the ring.

Then to the bride she went, and wished her joy.
