Digitized by LjOOQ IC XVII DARKNESS AND DAYBREAK IN PERSIA One can never forget the first sight of a Moslem woman — ^that veiled figure, moving silently through the streets, so enshrouded that face and form are comptetely concealed. Men and women pass each other with no greeting or token of recognition, and if a wife accompanies her husband, she never walks beside him, but at a respectful distance behind, and neither gives a sign that they belong together.
A woman's first instinct is to efface
...herself. Even the poor, washing clothes in the street at the water- course, pull their tattered rags over their faces. The Persian expression for women, "those who sit be- hind the curtain," shows that their place is silence and seclusion. When the closed carriage of a princess passes, her servants, galloping before, order all men to turn their faces to the wall, though all they could possibly see would be carefully veiled figures. The beggar sitting on the ground at the street comer is equally invisible under her cotton chader, as with lamentable voice she calls for mercy on the baby in her arms.
