"Soada, in the name of Allah the Compassionate, the Merciful, Soada, beautiful one!" Mahommed Selim, once the lithe, the straight, the graceful, now bent, awkward, fevered, all the old daring gone from him, stood still in themiddle of the room, humbled before the motherhood in his sight. "Brother of jackals, " cried old Fatima, "what dost thou here? What dostthou here, dog of dogs!" She spat at him. He took no notice. "Soada, " he said eagerly, prayerfully, and his voice, though hoarse, was sof...ter than she had ever heard it. "Soada, I havecome through death to thee--Listen, Soada! At night, when sleep was uponthe barrack-house, I stole out to come to thee. My heart had been hard. I had not known how much I loved thee--" Soada interrupted him. "What dost thou know of love, Mahommed Selim?The blood of the dead cries from the ground. " He came a step nearer. "The blood of Wassef the camel-driver is upon myhead, " he said. "In the desert there came news of it. In the desert, even while we fought the wild tribes, one to ten, a voice kept crying inmy ear, even as thou hast cried, 'What didst thou know of love, MahommedSelim!' One by one the men of Beni Souef fell round me; one by one theyspoke of their village and of their women, and begged for a drop ofwater, and died.
