Procure for me at once a chariot or a flying carpet or a well.trained dragon， or whatever is usual for royal and noble persons in your land.

“Stop，” said the Witch， just as he reached the door. “Do not dream of treachery. My eyes can see through walls and into the minds of men. They will be on you wherever you go.

Now go.”
