Quotation from: The Gods of Mars

Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs


"John Carter!" he exclaimed, and then a sudden troubled look came
into his eyes. "My Prince," he started, "where hast thou--" and
then he stopped, but I knew the question that his lips dared not
frame. The loyal fellow would not be the one to force from mine
a confession of the terrible truth that I had returned from the
bosom of the Iss, the River of Mystery, back from the shore of the
Lost Sea of Korus, and the Valley Dor.


"Ah, my Prince," he continued, as though no thought had interrupted
his greeting, "that you are back is sufficient, and let Hor Vastus'
sword have the high honour of being first at thy feet." With these
words the noble fellow unbuckled his scabbard and flung his sword
upon the ground before me.
