I wrote down the names of fourteen shrubs found in the valley of Taghijah: two of them, the sidr and the katuf, are edible by man; the rest, with the exception of the hijatajel, afford food for the camels. In this valley, amongst the trees, we found the flocks and horses of the Waled Bou Seif feeding.

We breathed the hot atmosphere with difficulty and displeasure. Right glad were we then, at length, to reach the Wady Taghijah, where I at once recognised my old desert friend, under whose spreading and heavy boughs I once had passed a night alone in the Sahara, the ethel-tree!
