Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bedouin Tribes of the Euphrates, Vol. 2 of 2 Thus attacked, the Pasha could only repeat his usual exclamation, Wah! Wah I wah! And appear delighted; though, to our guilty consciences, there seemed a curious expression not quite of pleasure in his eyes. All was well that ended well. He was glad we had met with no accident; but the desert was a dangerous place, and the Bedouins were not always to be trusted. However, we had returned, which was the principal thing; and he would do his best to console us for our fatigues. Our old rooms unfortunately were occupied, or on the point of being occupied, by the new Valy of Bagdad, who was passing through Deyr; but we could lodge at the house of a Christian tradesman, one Z Effendi, where we should still be the Pasha's guests, and, he hoped, more comfortably than was possible in his own poor house. For him self he had had a miserable time of it, ever since we went away, perpetual work and perpetual solitude. He was beginning to pine for home and the society of his friends at Aleppo; and Deyr was bringing him to an early grave.
