First sentence: THE Sultan of Angolar's palace of Lilotani stands by the sea, whence a lagoon runs inland like the blue-penciled hand on a proof-sheet, with a long forefinger pointing at a clove grove of shining green, aisled with corridors of close-growing fern, through which the African flowers may be seen blooming at the hour of twilight, the hour of the ladies' bath.
