Queen of the Desert Page #2

It's written in Farsi.

But the medieval form of the language.

You have read it?

"With them, we sow the seed of wisdom"

"And with my own hand I worked

to increase..."

"And that was all harvest

I picked it"

"

Income have water and I went like the wind."

Miss Bell, poetic art know?

- You know Omar Khayyam.

- Yes.

I want to learn their language.

Dear mother

I use the opportunity to send you this letter

With diplomatic bag today.

My first week was precious

and I started to learn Farsi,

To them

poets read their original language.

Mr. Cadogan, who works at the embassy

was a great help in this regard.

E agreeable, intelligent, read

And takes care of me and Florence.

I love him.

Today invited us to ride.

- But Henry does not know how to ride.

- You can.

If you fall?

- Hopefully that will not happen.

- I hate when riding.

- Why not join us?

- I'm afraid of horses.

Pa.

Miss Bell.

That's my favorite place in all rural areas.

In late winter, when the water level is

very high

Shepherds with their flocks swim to pasture in the summer.

Sometimes thousand sheep.

And pastors

wearing swim among them some inflated goat skins.

- Yes, I saw it.

- Yes ?

In Babylonian reliefs.

Do it and 4,000 years ago.

- Still do.

- It's extraordinary.

Sometimes up there.

I'm pretty good at climbing, but as God

get up there?

I confess it's quite easy.

Go back and climb through.

Why?

Why go there?

I go when I feel alone.

I feel very lonely sometimes.

Gertrude.

- Yes?

- A letter.

- A letter for me?

- No, Henry.

- You mean Mr. Cadogan?

- Yes, Henry.

You can give him this letter, please?

Why did not you give it yourself?

I can not.

Why can not you?

Gertrude, as from woman to woman,

not going to say anything?

- No, I will not say.

- Nobody?

Anyone.

I promise.

Ever since last year.

I mean one year, two months and 11 days...

What is it?

I did...

A passion for Hery.

What he said today?

He talked me?

No, I just spoke pastors.

Why can not Mr Cadogan

to your letter?

I can not, plain and simple.

What if I send letters by mail

I could arouse gossip when they get to him.

Letters?

I wrote two hundred two.

That's why... so awful.

I can not send.

Dear Florence, my dear.

You know I'd do anything for you.

But battles can not wear your heart.

Dear Dad

I do not know where to start.

East is like a dream extended.

Auntie takes care of me, and for the rest

Mr. Cadogan is a good guide and a good protector

.

Florence and takes care of me.

Show us wonderful things in bazaars.

's Always near us when we need him.

And when we have never needed it.

Hurry.

Yes. Thank you brought us.

See. Even eating

and ends here.

Yes?

- It's a delicacy?

- Yes.

What colors!

- Yes.

- They are so cute.

That's paprika.

One can taste.

Can I?

How to say "Thank you".

Do you like Florence?

Miss Bell.

I have not slept,

hoping to see you.

I came to play billiards.

Why did you come?

I came to show me

trick with cards.

I understand.

I'll do then.

You have to come closer.

As you can see,

package is already mixed.

Cards red and black ones are placed randomly.

This is devilish trick.

Because in this moment I will not touch the cards.

You'll do it all.

I?

I cast a spell on you.

And under this spell, without looking

,

'll Be able to assess whether a book

if it's red or black.

Without looking at book?

It's impossible.

According to the laws of probability.

Under my spell

Laws do not exist.

You can start.

N a return.

N it back.

What color is it?

Black.

Black.

Rosie.

Black.

Rosie.

Black. Black.

Rosie. Red. Red.

Voila.

Sir Cadogan, you hit the books again.

When you're back.

Gertrude, you're very smart.

You're the only one who noticed.

Just now you said "Gertrude," Henry?

Yes.

And you Henry told me just now?

The walls have ears.

How does the trick

really?

I'm not telling.

But you're very close.

I am?

I really like birds here.

For them come here.

That's the Tower of Silence.

Gertrude,

you sure you want to climb all the way?

Yes, I'm sure.

Yes.

It might be bones.

Skulls.

Eagles.

And if anger eagles?

They probably have heard us and flew

.

As I said, they let Zoroastrians here

death, eagles prey.

He considered sacred.

Afraid?

I'm not afraid.

Lowthian Bell Gertrude.

I want to kiss you.

Maybe we should kiss here.

Run. Come on.

Florence stop whining.

- Dad...

- Frank.

- Do not start with that.

- E front.

At my table does not complain.

I'm sorry that I was born a daughter,

you wanted a boy, obviously.

No way. You could give birth

and a dromedary and I would not be upset.

Listen my dear.

There is a good side to tears.

If you cry more,

go to the toilet more often.

Let's smoke a cigar together.

- Paine.

- Yes.

Sandwich.

A piece of bread.

Vin Sharabi.

A bottle of wine.

And...

You're doing very well.

- Yes?

- Yes.

"A piece of bread under the branch,

A bottle of wine, a book of verse."

"And you, stand next to me in the wilderness."

"And the wilderness is paradise enough."

More.

Look at this verse.

"Bird of Time has but a little way"

"To fly."

- E of Alexander the Great.

- Yes.

2,200 years we are looking at you.

- It's for me?

- No.

Only half.

I put a blacksmith and a cut in half.

So half is yours

and one mine.

Wherever you are in the world.

And wherever I am I.

That's proof that we belong to each other.

What if one of us dies, then the other keeps all

currency.

Henry.

Lowthian Bell Gertrude.

Will you marry me?

I heard right?

Yes, Marry me.

Marry me ?

On your knees?

Oh, no.

I did it right.

- Yes.

- Yes ?

Look.

It's good right?

Marry me ?

Yes.

Henry?

What are you doing?

How do you get past the guards

with a ladder?

I know how to do all the important things of life.

But you could make.

It was very important to solve some mystery.

What mystery?

See...

I love your smile.

But many men, the smile of a woman in love

,

Made the mistake of marrying the whole girl

.

Look entire face.

I wonder why I did not answer my father.

Do not worry, there's always a delay

Correspondence that should be sorted in the foreign office in London.

Two days ago I sent a telegram.

You sent a telegram?

The Embassy?

- So... all have heard about us?

- No.

No, I only said:

"You sent a reply?"

And I have not heard.

None of him.

I'm worried.

Can I help you?

A fast delivery.

For the dispatcher.

I noticed that the post office was this letter for your

I knew you wait.

I am always at your disposal.

I wish...

I wish... - What do you want?

I want you to know that I would give my life for a woman like you

I go home and talk to my father.

Love has no law.

Do not go.

Past or not impressive.

I do not care.

Do you know how win a diplomat beginner?

I could live in a tent

with the man that I love.

The things I learned about it

and probably did not know...

I know everything.

Probably do not know that man's punter.

A significant debts.
