Honain, you say, in favour? 'Very high. He'll make good terms for us. 'This is strange news. 'Very, but true. 'Well! you are welcome! Share our fare; 'tis rough, and somewhat scanty; but we have feasted, and may feast again. Fled into Egypt, eh? 'Ay! Sir. 'Schirene, shouldst like to see the Nile? 'I have heard of crocodiles.
'No, Sir, it has left me once, and never shall again. You have touched upon a string that makes me sad. There is a burden on my conscience, why, or what, I know not. I am innocent, you know I am innocent, Honain! 'I'll answer for your Highness.
'When may I go? Tell me when I may go. When may I quit this dark and noisome cell? 'Tis worse than all their tortures, dear Honain. Air and light, and I really think my spirit never would break, but this horrible dungeon I scarce can look upon thy face, sweet friend. 'Tis serious. 'Wouldst thou have me gay? 'Yes! if we are free.
I'll form my own, and be the deity I sometimes feel. 'We make our fortunes, and we call them Fate. Thou saidst well, Honain. Most subtle Sadducee! The saintly blood flowed in my fathers' veins, and they did nothing; but I have an arm formed to wield a sceptre, and I will win one. 'I cannot doubt my triumph. Triumph is a part of my existence.
Hareth ibn Kaldar, an eminent practitioner settled at Mecca, was honoured with the conversation and applause of Mohammed. Honain was an eminent Arab physician in the middle of the sixth century; Messue, the celebrated preceptor of Almamoun, belonged to this profession; and a host of others adorn the early annals of the Saracens.
Here Honain, who was in advance, turned round to Alroy, and said, 'Whatever happen, and whoever may address you, as you value your life and mine, do not speak. The door opened, and they found themselves in a vast and gorgeous hall.
'The Lord Honain, the Lord Honain, listen to the Lord Honain! 'Speak, thou brawler; of what hast thou to complain? said Honain to Abdallah. 'May it please your highness, said Abdallah, in a whining voice, 'I am the slave of your faithful servant, Ali: often have I had the honour of waiting on your highness.
They descended without precaution into the valley of Honain: the heights had been occupied by the archers and slingers of the confederates; their numbers were oppressed, their discipline was confounded, their courage was appalled, and the Koreish smiled at their impending destruction.
Who calls thee worldly is a slanderer. O Honain! thou art too faithful! 'I have no thought but for thy service, Prince. 'Call me not Prince, call me thine own Alroy. My life spared! 'Tis wonderful! When may I go? Let no one see me. Manage that, Honain. Thou canst manage all things. I am for Egypt. Thou hast been to Egypt, hast thou not, Honain? 'A very wondrous land, 'twill please thee much.
Meekly and mutely each touched the earth with his hand, and kissed it in token of submission, and then, moving aside, made way for the chief envoy and orator of the company, Honain! Humbly, but gracefully, the physician of the caliph bowed before the conqueror of the East.
