Through the partly open door we could smell everything that ever happened since the beginning of the world, and hear most of the elemental music--made, for instance, of the squeal of fighting stallions, and the bray of an amorous he-ass--the bubbling complaint of fed camels that want to go to sleep, but are afraid of dreaming--the hum of human voices--the clash of cooking pots--the voice of a man on the roof singing falsetto to the stars (that was surely the Pathan!)

"Cuckoo, you ass!" laughed Fred, kicking the chair over backward, and then piling all the veranda furniture on top, to the scandalized amazement of the stately kavass, who came at that moment shepherding a small boy with a large tray and perfectly enormous drinks.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,462   ~   ~   ~

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,507   ~   ~   ~

Not a woman--not with spunk enough to be a woman!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,508   ~   ~   ~

That dirty horse-pond drinking unshaven black bastard Rustum Khan is outside listening!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,872   ~   ~   ~

You pose as a cast-iron materialist with no more ambition than money enough to retrieve your damned estates, and all the while you're the most romantic ass who ever wore out saddle-leather!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,882   ~   ~   ~

Damn you, Didums, can't you see--?"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,895   ~   ~   ~

But you're not last, you bally ass!"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,361   ~   ~   ~

"Damn!" exclaimed Gloria, Boston fashion, not in the least under her breath.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,502   ~   ~   ~

He muttered to himself, and I think he thought I was off to make love to the woman; but I was past caring about any one's opinion on that score.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,555   ~   ~   ~

"Now damn your ankle," he said.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,586   ~   ~   ~

"Damn that fellow Didums!" he grumbled.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,895   ~   ~   ~
