Quotation from: The Chessmen of Mars

Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs


"Safe, possibly, from other hands, but not from her own," said
Gahan. "She will never become Jeddara of Manator--first will she
destroy herself."


"She would do that?" asked I-Gos.


"She will, unless you can get word to her that I still live and
that there is yet hope," replied Gahan.


"I cannot get word to her," said I-Gos. "The quarters of his
women O-Tar guards with jealous hand. Here are his most trusted
slaves and warriors, yet even so, thick among them are countless
spies, so that no man knows which be which. No shadow falls
within those chambers that is not marked by a hundred eyes."
