Chapter # Sentence # Quote
5 76 Certain gardens, we had gathered, had been breached, and plundered, their contents taken away, to what places and for what purposes who knew.
5 77 But our house, I understood, was immune from such ravages.
5 78 Our house, it seemed, enjoyed some special status.
5 79 It stood high, it seemed, in the favor of those who controlled the city.
5 80 We had been, until now, at least, exempted from exactions, confiscations, taxations, and such.
5 81 To be sure, it was in its way an uneasy existence for us, in the garden, for we could hear what occasionally went on in the streets, on the other side of the wall, and we had gathered, from remarks of guards, overheard, and such, that not every house in the city, with such a garden, had been spared rude, abrupt attentions.
5 82 In the garden we were pampered and soft.
