"If you doubt me, you will kill me. I am at any rate true to you. What is it you want? What is it you think?"
"They tell me that the document is in the house in the Kleinseite."
"Who are they? Who is it that tells you?"
"More than one. Your uncle and aunt said so — and Ziska Zamenoy came to me on purpose to repeat the same."
"And would you believe what Ziska says? I have hardly thought it worth my while to tell you that Ziska — "
"To tell me what of Ziska?"
"That Ziska pretends to — to want that I should be his wife. I would not look at him if there were not another man in Prague. I hate him. He is a liar. Would you believe Ziska?"
"And another has told me."
"Another?" said Nina, considering.
"Yes, another."
