Answered Al-Asma'i, "Hearkening and obedience! I have heard great store of women's verses; but none pleased me save three sets of couplets I once heard from three girls." And Shahrazad perceived the dawn of day and ceased saying her permitted say. When it was the Six Hundred and Eighty-seventh Night,
Then she threw me a purse containing three hundred dinars and said to me, 'This is mine and I give it to thee by way of douceur in requital of thy judgment." Quoth the Caliph, "Why didst thou decide for the youngest?" and quoth Al-Asma'i, "O Commander of the Faithful, whose life Allah prolong! the eldest said, 'I should delight in him, if he visited my couch in sleep. Now this is restricted and dependent upon a condition which may befal or may not befal; whilst, for the second, an image of dreams came to her in sleep, and she saluted it; but the youngest's couplet said that she actually lay with her lover and smelt his breath sweeter than musk and she engaged her soul and her folk for him, which she had not done, were he not dearer to her than her sprite."
Quoth I to myself, ''Tis no time of me to stay here. So I came down from the platform and was about to go away, when the damsel cried out to me, 'Sit down, O Asma'i! Asked I, 'Who gave thee to know that I was Al-Asma'i? and she answered, 'O Shaykh, an thy name be unknown to us, thy poetry is not! So I sat down again and suddently the door opened and out came the first damsel, with a dish of fruits and another of sweetmeats.
