A girl. . . from a "house"?

No. A pure maiden.

How do you come to know her?

She comes to Manke every night. . . Steals out of her home. . . Nobody sees her. Something seems to draw her here. . . she is so inquisitive. ..

Ps-s-s! Is my father down there?

No.

She! "Uncle" Yekel's daughter! A genuine gold-mine!

Hush! She's coming!

, ''slender and beautiful; dressed modestly, and wrapped in a black shawl; steals through the door, runs down the stairs with trembling caution. She speaks more with signs than with words.''
