So I said: “Give j me, 1 pray the, a little water of thy pitcher to drink.” And she replied : “Drink thou, and 1 will also withdraw my pitch er, that my mule may drink like wise.” And I, carried away by the charm of the scene, asked, not l’or information, but for the sake of hearing the music of her voice: “Whose daughter art thou?” And I went away crestfallen, pondering oyer the difference be tween Mesopotamia in the days of Abraham and Macedonia in my own. As I entered the village of Pio- visto a second damsel came fourth with her pitcher on her shoulder. She was not fair to look upon. 1 made bold to ask to direct me to the house of a man to whom i was recommended. And she made j haste and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and showed me the way.
