A moment later there was a rap on the tent poie and a tall man stooped low to Dass through the opening.

My friends laugh at fortune-telling. It je true, and at palmistry and love pilitres, and declare they are Olt world nonsense. But something In my heart seems to tell me the Romany lore is true. I don't know why I feel that way. I'm practical enough im every other respect. But my belief in gypsy fortunes, like my knowledge of sypsy language, seems to be something with which 1 was born.’ Again that odd look, half pride, half Joy, flawhed across Rebekah's face.
