〃Judges;〃 he said; 〃there can be but one verdict。 No longer may
John Carter be Prince of Helium〃he paused〃but instead let
him be Jeddak of Jeddaks; Warlord of Barsoom!〃
As the thirty…one judges sprang to their feet with drawn and
upraised swords in unanimous concurrence in the verdict; the storm
broke throughout the length and breadth and height of that mighty
building until I thought the roof would fall from the thunder of
the mad shouting。
Now; at last; I saw the grim humor of the method they had adopted
to do me this great honor; but that there was any hoax in the
reality of the title they had conferred upon me was readily
disproved by the sincerity of the congratulations that were
heaped upon me by the judges first and then the nobles。
Presently fifty of the mightiest nobles of the greatest courts
of Mars marched down the broad Aisle of Hope bearing a splendid
car upon their shoulders; and as the people saw who sat within;
the cheers that had rung out for me paled into insignificance beside
those which thundered through the vast edifice now; for she whom
the nobles carried was Dejah Thoris; beloved Princess of Helium。
Straight to the Throne of Righteousness they bore her; and there
Tardos Mors assisted her from the car; leading her forward to my side。
〃Let a world's most beautiful woman share the honor of her husband;〃
he said。
Before them all I drew my wife close to me and kissed her upon the lips。
