Quotation from: The Gods of Mars

Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs


In another instant we were surrounded by armed sailors, and an
officer had stepped forward to address us, when his eyes fell upon
Carthoris. With an exclamation of surprised pleasure he sprang
forward, and, placing his hands upon the boy's shoulder, called
him by name.


"Carthoris, my Prince," he cried, "Kaor! Kaor! Hor Vastus greets
the son of Dejah Thoris, Princess of Helium, and of her husband,
John Carter. Where have you been, O my Prince? All Helium has
been plunged in sorrow. Terrible have been the calamities that
have befallen your great-grandsire's mighty nation since the fatal
day that saw you leave our midst."
