Chapter V.

At Home.

Lutufonissa came to her house, and calling Pesmon with a cheerful face, took off her jewels and ornaments. She took off her clothes, embroidered with gold, pearls, and other precious stones, and said to Pesmon, "Do you take these clothes."

Pesmon, on hearing this, was a little astonished, as the clothes had quite lately been made at an enormous expense. She said, "Why do you give me the clothes? What is the news to-day?"

Lutufonissa said, "It is good news."

Pe. That I can understand. Have you got rid of the obstacle Meheronissa?

Lu. Yes. Now I have no anxiety on that score.
