The religion of the Bedouins, as the Sire de Joinville reports, amongst other things, enjoined a belief that the soul of him amongst them who died for his prince, went into another body more happy, more beautiful, and more robust than the former; by which means they much more willingly ventured their lives: "In ferrum mens prona viris, animaeque capaces Mortis, et ignavum est rediturae parcere vitae."
