The tedious account of the palace of Shedad, in the first book the description of the Summer and Winter occupations of the Arabs, in the third the ill-told story of Haruth and Maruth the greater part of the occurrences in the island of Mohareb the paradise of Aloadin, etc., etc. are all instances of disproportioned and injudicious ornaments, which never could have presented themselves to an author who wrote from the suggestions of his own fancy; and have evidently been introduced, from the author's unwillingness to relinquish the corresponding passages in D'Herbelot, Sale, Volney, etc., which appeared to him to have great capabilities for poetry.
