"
But
half
a
legion
of
Romans
,
"
he
regretted
to
me
,
"
and
I
would
take
Jerusalem
by
the
throat
...
and
then
be
recalled
for
my
pains
,
I
suppose
.
"
Like
me
,
he
had
not
too
much
faith
in
the
auxiliaries
;
and
of
Roman
soldiers
we
had
but
a
scant
handful
.
Back
again
,
I
lodged
in
the
palace
,
and
to
my
great
joy
found
Miriam
there
.
But
little
satisfaction
was
mine
,
for
the
talk
ran
long
on
the
situation
.
There
was
reason
for
this
,
for
the
city
buzzed
like
the
angry
hornets
'
nest
it
was
.
The
fast
called
the
Passover
--
a
religious
affair
,
of
course
--
was
near
,
and
thousands
were
pouring
in
from
the
country
,
according
to
custom
,
to
celebrate
the
feast
in
Jerusalem
.
These
newcomers
,
naturally
,
were
all
excitable
folk
,
else
they
would
not
be
bent
on
such
pilgrimage
.
The
city
was
packed
with
them
,
so
that
many
camped
outside
the
walls
.
As
for
me
,
I
could
not
distinguish
how
much
of
the
ferment
was
due
to
the
teachings
of
the
wandering
fisherman
,
and
how
much
of
it
was
due
to
Jewish
hatred
for
Rome
.
"
A
tithe
,
no
more
,
and
maybe
not
so
much
,
is
due
to
this
Jesus
,
"
Pilate
answered
my
query
.
"
Look
to
Caiaphas
and
Hanan
for
the
main
cause
of
the
excitement
.
They
know
what
they
are
about
.
They
are
stirring
it
up
,
to
what
end
who
can
tell
,
except
to
cause
me
trouble
.
"
"
Yes
,
it
is
certain
that
Caiaphas
and
Hanan
are
responsible
,
"
Miriam
said
,
"
but
you
,
Pontius
Pilate
,
are
only
a
Roman
and
do
not
understand
.
Were
you
a
Jew
,
you
would
realize
that
there
is
a
greater
seriousness
at
the
bottom
of
it
than
mere
dissension
of
the
sectaries
or
trouble-making
for
you
and
Rome
.
The
high
priests
and
Pharisees
,
every
Jew
of
place
or
wealth
,
Philip
,
Antipas
,
myself
--
we
are
all
fighting
for
very
life
.
"
This
fisherman
may
be
a
madman
.
If
so
,
there
is
a
cunning
in
his
madness
.
He
preaches
the
doctrine
of
the
poor
.
He
threatens
our
law
,
and
our
law
is
our
life
,
as
you
have
learned
ere
this
.
We
are
jealous
of
our
law
,
as
you
would
be
jealous
of
the
air
denied
your
body
by
a
throttling
hand
on
your
throat
.
It
is
Caiaphas
and
Hanan
and
all
they
stand
for
,
or
it
is
the
fisherman
.
They
must
destroy
him
,
else
he
will
destroy
them
.
"
"
Is
it
not
strange
,
so
simple
a
man
,
a
fisherman
?
"
Pilate
's
wife
breathed
forth
.
"
What
manner
of
man
can
he
be
to
possess
such
power
?
I
would
that
I
could
see
him
.
I
would
that
with
my
own
eyes
I
could
see
so
remarkable
a
man
.
"
Pilate
's
brows
corrugated
at
her
words
,
and
it
was
clear
that
to
the
burden
on
his
nerves
was
added
the
overwrought
state
of
his
wife
's
nerves
.
