TAMARISK
That bed…
HASSAN That bed is not a chest. But doubtless it also contains fresh linen marked with my name.
TAMARISK
(Tremulous) That bed contains a most beautiful lady.
HASSAN
(Jumping) What?
TAMARISK
A most beautiful lady. She said she must see you, and gave me ten dinars.
YASMIN
(As HASSAN tears aside the curtains of the bed) Hassan!
(She is dressed in a cloak and veiled.)
HASSAN
What voice?
YASMIN
Hassan. (She unveils.)
HASSAN
Thou!
YASMIN
I came: I hid: I waited.
