The Caliph Haroon al Rusheed one day commanded the grand vizier Jaffier to come to his palace the night following.
The chief Cauzee of Bagdad being called, with witnesses, wrote the contracts of marriage; and the caliph in promoting by his patronage the happiness of many persons who had suffered such incredible calamities, drew a thousand blessings upon himself.
