It was fatal. The eyes of the two girls met. And immediately Lasaraleen sat up iter and burst out at the top of her voice.
“Aravis！ What oh are you doing here? Your father —”
There was not a moment to lo. Without a d’s delay Aravis let go the Hors, caught the edge of the litter, swung herlf up beside Lasaraleen and whispered furiously in her ear.
“Shut up！ Do you hear！ Shut up. You must hide me. Tell your people —”
“But darling —” began Lasaraleen in the same loud voice.（She didn’t in the least mind making people stare; in fact she rather liked it.）
“Do what I tell you or I’ll never speak to you again,” hisd Aravis. “Plea, plea be quick, Las. It’s frightfully important. Tell your people t tho two hors along. Pull all the curtains of the litter a away somewhere where I ’t be found. And do hurry.”
