Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lady Burton's Edition of Her Husband's Arabian Nights, Vol. 2: Translated Literally From the Arabic She said, It hath reached me, O auspicious King, that when the Chamberlain bade the tent-pitchers set up a pavilion spacious enough to receive the subjects flocking to their Sultan, they planted a splendid Shahmiyanah 1 befitting Kings. And as they ended their labours behold, a dust cloud spired aloft and the breeze made it lift and beneath it showed a conquering host and presently it appeared that this was the army of Baghdad and Khorasan preceded by the Wazir Dandan. And in it all rejoiced at the accession of the Light of the Place. Now Zau al-makan had donned robes of royal estate and girt himself with the sword of state: so the Chamberlain brought him a steed and he mounted, surrounded by the Mamelukes and all the company from the tents on foot, to do him service, and he rode on until he came to the great pavilion, where he sat down and he laid the royal dagger across his thighs, whilst the Chamberlain stood in attendance on him and his armed Slaves stationed themselves under the entrance-awning of the Shahmiyanah, with drawn swords in their hands. Presently, up came the troops and the host and craved admission; so the Chamberlain went in to Zau al Makan and asked his leave, whereupon he bade admit them, ten by ten. The Chamberlain acquainted them with the King's commands, to which they replied, We hear and we Obey; and all drew up before the pavilion-entrance. Then he took ten of them and carried them through the vestibule into the presence of Sultan Zau al-makan, whom when they saw, they were awed; but he received them with most gracious kindness and promised them all good. So they gave him joy of his safe return and invoked Allah's blessings upon him, after which they took the oath of fealty never to gainsay him in aught and they kissed ground before him and withdrew. Then other ten entered and he entreated them as he had entreated the others; and they ceased not to enter, ten by ten, till none was left but the Wazir Dandan. Lastly the Minister went in and kissed the ground before Zau al-makan, who rose to meet him saying, Welcome, 0 Wazir and sire sans peer! Verily, thine acts are those of a counsellor right dear, and judgment and foreseeing clear are in the hands of the Subtle of Lere. Then bade he the Chamberlain forthwith go out and cause the tables to be spread and order all the. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lady Burton's Edition of Her Husband's Arabian Nights, Vol. 6 of 6: Translated Literally From the Arabic; Prepared for Household Reading She pursued, It hath reached me, O auspicious King, that Abdullah of the Sea said to Abdullah of the Land, And if a thousand or more of this kind hear an Adamite cry a Single cry, forthright all die, nor hath one of them power to remove from his place so, whenever a son of Adam falleth into the sea, we take him and anoint him with this fat and go round about the depths with him, and whenever we see a Dandan or two or three or more, we bid him cry out and they all die forthright for his once crying. Quoth the fisherman, I put my trust in Allah 5 and doffing his clothes, buried them in a hole which he dug in the beach; after which he rubbed his body from head to heels with that ointment. Then he descended into the water and diving, opened his eyes and the brine did him no hurt so he walked right and left, and if he would, he rose to the sea-face, and if he would, he sank to the base. And he beheld the water as it were a tent over his head, yet it wrought him no hurt. Then said the Merman to him, What seest thou, O my brother? And said he, O my brother, I see naught save weal 1; and indeed thou spakest truth in that which thou saidst to me for the water doth me no hurt. Quoth the Merman, Follow me. So he followed him and they ceased not faring on, from place to place whilst Abdullah discovered before him and on his right and left mountains of water and solaced him self by gazing thereon and on the various sorts of fish, some great and some small, which disported themselves in the main. Some of them favoured buffaloes,2 others oxen and others dogs and yet others human beings; but all to which they drew near fled, whenas they saw the fisherman, who said to the Merman, O my brother, how is it that I see all the fish to which we draw near flee from us afar?
