Now hold all straight and ask for the holy man 's blessing upon me . Perhaps , too , he knows a cure for my daughter 's sore eyes . Ask . him that also , O thou Little Friend of all the World .

Ohe , bhisti ! ' he called to the water-carrier , sluicing the crotons by the Museum . ` Give water here . We men are thirsty . ' ` We men !
