Such a pair of scare-crows asthey looked! Ahmed was almost naked. The robbers had taken part of hisclothes, and the desert thorns the rest. Haggard, wild, blackened bythe sun, they gazed at each other with horror; each thought, "Do I looklike that?" and each tried to hide from the other his own dismay. They could never tell afterward how long they remained at the oasis. Itseemed years, but I suppose it could not have been more than weeks. Allday long they looked wistfully toward the horizon, in... hopes of acaravan, but the caravan never came. Slowly the dates dwindled in thebag; slowly the precious water diminished in the well; a little longer, and starvation would be upon them. They scarcely spoke to each otherthose last days, but sat each by himself in a sort of dull despair. Atnight, when they fell asleep, they dreamed of food, and woke in themorning to feel themselves still hungry. It was horrible! Then came a morning when they rose to find the hard desert outline, which they knew so well, vanished and gone, and in its stead a smooth, shining lake, fringed with trees and dotted with feathery, fairyislands.
