Excerpt from Under the Tricolour
To induce her to leave her native land, the fellow who enticed her to Africa had said that her destination was only a little beyond Marseilles; that there was just a calm strip of sea to cross, and that in a few hours She would find herself in a country exactly like France, but where the men were more generous.
For days she had been standing on the second-class deck, gazing over the never ending sea, in search of the houses, the cafés and the boulevards of port-ferry, whither She was bound in the company of Pasiphae, a languorous blonde, and Carmen, a Wallachian girl.
