  1. (continued from previous page)
    Our master he gave orders that no women should go.
    Your waist is too slender, love your fingers too small
    and I fear you would not answer when on you I would call,
    Your delicate constitution could not bear the unwholesome clime.
    On the hot and and sandy desert on the banks of the Nile.
