[Page 3]

It was something to see the sun set in its last sullen fusion of gold.  To think of the relentless rays of the sun beating from above & burning from below.  The only way out of it is the few hours of the evening when the sun takes his hands off you & you slip through his fingers into the night.  It is the custom of the Arabs at sundown to turn their heads towards towards Mecca & give thanks.  Well they might do so - for such a release.

Sand powdered Egypt.

Pungent smell of a camel.
