The opening

The Curtain rises on a window covered by a network of intricate pattern in front of the Palace.

(Nandini and Kishôr, a digger boy, come in.)

Kishôr Have you enough flowers, Nandini? Here, I have brought some more.

Nandini Run away, Kishôr, do,—back to your work, quick! You’ll be late again.

The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
