What's the good of that?
Amal
In case there's a letter for me.
Headman
A letter for you! Whoever's going to write to you?
Amal
If the King does.
Headman
Ha! ha! What an uncommon little fellow you are! Ha! ha! the King indeed, aren't you his bosom friend, eh! You haven't met for a long while and the King is pining, I am sure. Wait till tomorrow and you'll have your letter.
