Jump!
:40:13
My leg!
:40:20
I have a letter for you.
:40:23
My friend is very ill.
:40:24
Bring him in.
You are very welcome.

:40:39
I have lived here all my life,
:40:41
there has never been a school
like the one you describe,

:40:44
not here.
:40:50
What did you say
it was called?

:40:52
Sarmoung?

The year before last,
a man quite unknown to me

:41:04
came and asked me to show him
a map I possess.

:41:20
How could he have known I had it?
I have no idea.

:41:22
I inherited it
from my grandfather.

:41:25
The man was so insistent I thought
why shouldn't I let him see it?

:41:28
He looked at the parchment
:41:30
and immediately offered me
200 Turkish pounds for it.

:41:35
You might like
to take a look at it.

:41:49
He said it was a map
of Egypt before the sands.

:41:54
I didn't wish to part with it.
Anyway, I didn't need the money

:41:57
so I refused.
:41:59
The next day
he came to offer 500 pounds.
