Huboub

Trimardeur, translated as Vagabond, was unfinished at her
sudden death in a flash flood at Ain Sefra in October 1904
This is all I can remember about IsAbelle Eberhardt
He had no place amongst men, for he could only ever be either their victim or executioner
She exchanged letters with her brother in which he described his life in the Foreign Legion
The hubBub was caused if at all by the careful packaging of the unfinished
S/he fell in love with an Arab and crossed the line my friends would tell me of
Had not the old man come in with a WhOo-bub against his Daughter and the King's son
This is not a book about escaping into the desert and there is no perfect description of the sanD or the prickly pears

"vagabond" is a more romantic title than "trimardeur" or tramp

vagrant
