Next morning I rose early, and made certain alterations in the chief priest's clothes so as to avoid detection. I went to the chief executioner's house, presented the letter, and received the horse, upon which I rode hastily away to the village. Having obtained the hundred tomauns I escaped across the frontier to Bagdad. IV. Hajji and the Infidels
My heart is a little angry, Friend of all the World, that thou shouldst see such worth in a man so little known. 'It is true, Hajji; but that worth do I see, and to him my heart is drawn. 'And his to thine, I hear. Hearts are like horses. They come and they go against bit or spur. Shout Gul Sher Khan yonder to drive in that bay stallion's pickets more firmly.
They said: 'Oh, our Lord, we neither see nor hear. The Hajji said: 'But I command ye to see and to hear and to say. They said: 'Oh, our Lord, it is to our commanded eyes as though slaves stood in a Fork. The Hajji said: 'So testify before the officer who waits you in the town of Dupe. They said: 'What shall come to us after? The Hajji said: 'The just reward for the informer.
"Not at all: only to Paris, my dear; that makes a Hajji in New-York." "And does it entitle the pilgrim to wear the green turban?" asked Eve, laughing. "To wear any thing, Miss Effingham; green, blue, or yellow, and to cause it to pass for elegance." "And which is the favourite colour with the family you have mentioned?"
Barbarossa had once more proved to the world that the Turkish fleet was invincible. The flag of Suleymān floated supreme in all the waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Von Hammer, Gesch. d. Osm. Reiches, ii. 142. Hājji Khalīfa, 58. Jurien de la Gravière, Doria et Barberousse, Pt. II., ch. xlii.-xlv.; Hājji Khalīfa, 62; Von Hammer, ii. 155; Morgan, 290.
But the Infant had already made the sign, and we heard Imam Din hunker down on the floor: One gets little out of the East at attention. "When the fever came on our Sahib in our roofed house at Dupe," he began, "the Hajji listened intently to his talk.
Whoever has once been there may die in peace, and in his lifetime he may attach the honourable title of Hajji to his name. From distant countries in Africa and from the innermost parts of Asia innumerable pilgrims flock annually to the holy towns. Adjoining Arabia on the north-east lies the country called Mesopotamia, through which flow the rivers Euphrates and Tigris.
The Spanish historians are silent on the subject of this expedition: or, rather, Haedo positively denies it, and says that Kheyr-ed-dīn sent an embassy to the Sultan, but did not go in person. Hājji Khalīfa, however, is clear and detailed in his account of the visit. For an account of Stambol and the old Seraglio see the Story of Turkey, 260 ff.
That very night, when I was cooking the dinner, the Hajji said to me: 'I go to my own place, though God knows whether the Man with the Stone Eyes have left me an ox, a slave, or a woman. I said: 'Thou art then That One? The Hajji said: 'I am ten thousand rupees reward into thy hand. Shall we make another law-case and get more cotton machines for the boy? I said: 'What dog am I to do this?
Ye are that labour, and your spawn after you. They said, lifting their heads a very little from the edge of the ashes: 'We are that labour, and our spawn after us. The Hajji said: 'What is also my name? They said: 'Thy name is also The Merciful' The Hajji said: 'Praise then my mercy'; and while they did this, the Hajji walked away, I following."
