Quote context

[...]

- And yet now it seems Auda has grown old. And lost his taste for fighting.

- It is well you say it in my tent, thou old tulip.

- Yet this is a tulip that the Turks could not buy.

- Why should they wish to?

- Now, I will tell you what they pay me, and you will tell me if this is a servant's wages.

- They pay me, month by month, 100 golden guineas.

- 150.

- Who told you that?

- I have long ears.

- And a long tongue between them.

- 100, 150, what matters? It's a trifle. A trifle which they take from a great box they have.

- In Aqaba.

- In Aqaba?

- Where else?

- You trouble me like women.

- Friends, we have been foolish. Auda will not come to Aqaba.

- No.

- For money?

- No.

- For Feisal?

- No.

- Nor to drive away the Turks.

- He will come... because it is his pleasure.
