Is the limit of our stay? now I am here,

I would abide for ever.

Za.I know as little

As thou. The king, thy sire, came here to fight

The unbelievers: when they are beaten back

We shall go home. But why he sent for thee

I cannot guess.

Al.Last night I know not, Zapel,

Whether I slept or waked,—

Za.Nor could I sleep.
