Peer Gynt Translated by Robert Farquharson Sharp Act IV Scene 3 (Night. An encampment of Moroccan troops on the edge of the desert. Watch-fires, with soldiers resting by them.) A SLAVE (enters, tearing his hair). Gone is the Emperor’s milk-white charger! ANOTHER SLAVE (enters, rending his garments). The Emperor’s sacred robes are stolen! AN OFFICER (enters). A hundred stripes upon the foot-soles for all who fail to catch the robber! (The troopers mount their horses, and gallop away in every direction.)
