THE DARK CHAMBER
177

Sudarshana

Oh, yes, it will pass—the day has arrived for me to humble myself before the whole world. But why does not the King come to take me back? What more is he waiting for yet?

Surangama

Have I not told you my King is cruel and hard—very hard indeed?

Sudarshana

Go out, Surangama, and bring me news of him.

Surangama

I do not know where I should go to get any news of him. I have asked Grandfather to come; perhaps when he comes we shall hear something from him.
