Act I

[Outside the gate of the city of Thalanna.]

Bel-Narb:
By evening we shall be in the desert again.

Aoob:
Yes.

Bel-Narb:
Then no more city for us for many weeks.

Aoob:
Ah!

Bel-Narb:
We shall see the lights come out, looking back from the
camel-track; that is the last we shall see of it.

Aoob:
We shall be in the desert then.
