Let the money be distributed among the poor, and let them each have fifty bastinadoes on the soles of the feet. I have said it." "Wallah thaib it is well said," replied Mustapha, as the two disputants were removed from the presence.
What says the sage? and are not his words of more value than large pearls? 'When thou art sick, and thy mind is heavy, send for wine. Drink, and thank Allah that he has given relief." "Wallah Thaib! it is well said," replied the pacha: "Is not the 'fire-water' of the Franks to be obtained?"

"Yet there are wise men who can read our kismet, and foretell." "Yes, very true; but I have observed that it is not until after an event has happened, that they tell you of it.

Well said, by God!" replied Mustapha; "who was Lokman, that they talk of his wisdom? Are not these words of more value than strung pearls?" "What was the name of the country?" demanded the pacha.
"Allah wakbar God is every where! It was your talleh your destiny, Huckaback." "It was his kismet his fate, your sublime highness," rejoined Mustapha, "that he should go through those perils to amuse your leisure hours." "Wallah thaib well said, by Allah!
