"When I was fourteen," said Mirza, "I too was beautiful; at least my husband and my mirror told me so. There is something in your face that reminds me of the face I used to see in my gla.s.s, but when one grows old, and I am eight-and-twenty, one is sure to see resemblances that do not exist.

And with an exceeding bitter cry she went out.
