To thee, O Matassia Aschenesi, who reincarnatest Asa, shall be given Barbary, and thou, Mokiah Gaspar, in whom lives the soul of Zedekiah, shalt reign over England." And so the partition went on, Elias Azar being appointed Vice-King or Vizier of Elias Zevi, and Joseph Inernuch Vizier of Joseph Zevi. "And for me?" eagerly interrupted Abraham Rubio, the beggar from the Morea.
Fear not, you will soon be another's, for Osman Ali has asked thee for his wife, and I have listened to his request." Now Osman Ali was as old as her father, and Azar hated him. She offered her hand tremblingly, and led Gascoigne into the zenana. The Moor attended them to the threshold, bowed, and left them.
After an hour's conversation, in which Azar, his daughter, did not join, the old Moor asked Gascoigne to descend into the women's apartment; and observing his daughter's silence, said to her "Azar, you are angry that this Frankish houri should come to the apartments of which you have hitherto been sole mistress.
Jack might have suffered this; the difficulty was with Gascoigne, who would not hear of going away without his lovely Azar. At last Jack planned a scheme which he thought would succeed, and which would be a good joke to tell the Governor. He therefore appeared to consent to Gascoigne's carrying off his little Moor, and they canvassed how it was to be managed.

As for poor Azar, she had wandered about until she was tired, in Miss Hicks's dress, and at last returned broken hearted to her father's, and was admitted by Abdel Faza himself; he imagined it was Miss Hicks, and was in transports he discovered it was his daughter, and he was in a fury. The next day she went to the zenana of Osman Ali.
That night Gascoigne left one of Miss Hicks's many dresses with Azar, who agreed to follow his fortunes, and who packed up all the jewels and money she could lay her hands upon. Poor little Child, she trembled with fear and delight. Miss Hicks smuggled, as she thought, a box of clothes on board, and in the box was her fortune of three hundred dollars.
"And how to get others out of them, too, Ned." "`No more of that Hal, an thou lovest me," quoted Gascoigne. "I have often wondered what has been the lot of poor Azar." "The lot of most women, Ned, in every country prized at first, neglected afterwards the lot she might have had with you." "Perhaps so," replied Ned, with a sigh.
