After weeks of torment, when every day seemed certain to be his last, the iron constitution prevailed, and the King recovered. In the first days of his convalescence I went to see him, and found him lying on his bed, in his eyes the light of conscious- ness and intelligence, and sitting by him the wife, Raja Sarefa, He was weak, spoke slowly and in a small voice, but said that by God's grace he only wanted time to regain his strength. After expressing my thank- fulness at seeing him so well on
...the way to ■recovery, I said that I had often been over to see him when he was ill, and that the Raja Sarefa had tended, him with _ extraordinary devotion, never 174 THE KING'S WAY seeming to leave his bedside. At once he said, " You noticed that, did you ? " I repfied that I had been very much struck by her care of him. "I was blind," he said ; " I do not know what happened, but I am very glad you remarked how carefully Sarefa nursed me, and that you have mentioned it, for now you will recognise that she ought to have an allowance." In the presence of the lady, even though she did not raise her eyes from the floor, it was difficult not to recognise that, if curses come home to roost, blessings sometimes go astray.
