I know your idea of a holiday: twelve hours a day at a new subject instead of ten at an old one!

Adene.

I'm going to Rajpoor, your father's old province: and I want specially to get up into the mountains, to the scene of his great exploits.

Vera.

To Bhojâl! You'll find that difficult. But why in the world are you going?

Adene.

You know I've been working for some years at Indian dialects?

Vera.

Yes; you sent us your book. Father said he couldn't imagine where you had learnt all those languages.
