The lamp this slave spoke of was the wonderful lamp, which Alla ad Deen had laid upon the shelf before he departed for the chase; this he had done several times before; but neither the princess, the slaves, nor the eunuchs, had ever taken notice of it. At all other times except when hunting he carried it about his person.
"I have no fault to find with her housekeeping." "Of course not, father; men never notice," Aunt Caroline replies in an aggrieved tone.
