A Prisoner

Porus Immediately went to his army,
marshalled it, with that of Axiana, in
battle array, and set it in motion
against Alexander
But when Axiana attempted to leave
the camp of TaXiles she found herself
a prisoner. A guard took her to the
tent of Cleophila.
How is this, madam" she burst
forth; "am l a prisoner-forbidden to
see my army march forth to battle? Is
it thus Taxiles begins his treason? Is
this the meaning of all his sighs and
protestations of love? My humble wor-
shipper has become my master-has
he?"
1t was in vain that Cleophila strove
to sooth the angered Queen. She said
that her brother had only detained An
lana in place of safety until the bat
tle-the clamor of whose sound was
now borne to them upon the wind
should be over
The Queen became so furious and in
sulting that Cleophila could not resist
saying: "A short absence from Porus
seems to greatly disturb you-would
you seek the battlefield to find him?"
Il would do more" cried Axiana, Il
would follow him even to the tomb
with ardor and with pride"

AInne of India's Kings

Alexander treated Cleophila with the
greatest distinction and finally gave her
her freedom, sending her to her brother
camp.
But no sooner had Cleophila gone than
Alexander longed to see her again. and,
at length. gave orders to hurry on with
all dispatch to the Hydaspes where he
knew he should come upon the Indian
King-and Cleophila.
When Cleophila heard of the approach
of the Macedonian army and saw her
brother making preparations to oppose
AIexanders advance she begged Taxiles
rather to make friends with the conquer
or of Persia than join Porus and Queen
Axiana in opposing him.
what" cried Taxiles, "shall I alone
of all the Kings of India bow my neck
to the yoke? AS for his being the ac-
knowledged master of the world, so far
from being daunted at that, it is all the
more reason why we should attack him" ="
but, my brother" said Cleophila, has
not Alexander sent to you appealing for
your friendship-and for yours alone? He
stands ready to discharge his lightning
flash and makes secret efforts to pro-
tect your head"
