"It doth come from a Roman centurion."
"Hath a centurion died?"
"Nay, but his servant, sick unto death, was restored by a wonder worker."
"Whence came this wonder worker?"
"He is a Jew. I know not more, but the centurion telleth it broadly."
"Whence got thou the story?"
"From thy scarred eunuch, my mistress."
"From my scarred eunuch? And where got he the story?"
"I know not save he hath it."
"Call thou my eunuch to me."
