Explore "The Sacrifice of Er-Heb" by Rudyard Kipling on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Er-Heb beyond the Hills of Ao-Safai / Bears witness to the truth, and Ao-Safai / Hath told the men of Gorukh. Thence the tale / Comes westward o'er the peaks to India.
The story of Bisesa, Armod's child, -- / A maiden plighted to the Chief in War, / The Man of Sixty Spears, who held the Pass / That leads to Thibet, but to-day is gone / To seek his comfort of the God called Budh / The Silent -- showing how the Sickness ceased / Because of her who died to save the tribe.
