          Georgian knight would start tackling him.

          the entrance of the grubby portal. But before
          he entered, he saw a woman on the terrace
          building wearing a rusty old suit. She looked           सकल में ममलता हमको ज्ान,
                                                                     ू
          familiar  to him.  Anyhow,  he entered and              ज्ान क साथ-साथ सवाफदष्ट खानपान
                                                                        े
          found himself in a huge lobby full of people
          imprisoned. He entered a room where he                  हर बच् क हुनर को परखता मेरा सकल,
                                                                           े
                                                                         े
                                                                                               ू
          saw a silhouette of a man seated on a throne.
                                                                                                 ू
          Montgomery said, “Hand over the book, and               जीवन की नैर्ा को पार लगाता मेरा सकल।
          Sir Xavier will award you with what you want.”
          There was a moment of silence in the room.
                                                                               ू

          Then, suddenly the man burst into an evil               खाओ, खेलो, कदो, खब मौज मनाओ,
          laugh. Montgomery was puzzled. “I said—.”               पढ़ने क साथ-साथ जीवन को सिल बनाओ
                                                                        े
          Before he could complete his sentence,
          the man interrupted, “Well, well, well. How
          about we keep the book, and, in exchange,
          you can keep your daughter Isadora who
          is in our custody locked up in the terrace?”
          Montgomery didn’t know what to do. It was
          either the book or his daughter.
