Starcourt could have sworn he heard
a chuckle break on her lips as she rode

He watched her till she disappeared

supple figure astride the fleet Selim
He dreamed that night that she was
gleefully pricking him with knife and
laughing at his appeals for mercy. She
had him securely tied to tree.
Gerane also had dream. And in II
she walked in a beautiful garden with
beautiful LADY who rejoiced to hear that
her son was alive and thanked her for
