Then, without a word, she took her gold bracelets and chains and rings, and let them all fall in a heap at her feet. The women of the Apura took them all and mocked her, crying: "Where now is thy husband and thy son and thy brother, thou who art of Pharaoh's house?
Nor shall I take aught from thee but that little ring that thou wearest on the finger of thy hand." 'And the Emperor frowned. "It is but a ring of lead," he cried, "nor has it any value.

"I am a great Genie," answered the monster, "and was conjured thither by the great King Solomon, whose seal it is that thou wearest upon thy finger.

"Ask what thou wilt," said the Genie, "for I must ever obey whomsoever hast the ring that thou wearest upon thy finger. Hath my lord nothing to command wherein I may serve him?" Abdallah shook his head.
