Since the conquest of Mohammed Aly, the Kadhy has recovered his importance, in the same proportion as the influence of the Sherif has been diminished.

The adherents of the Capulets and the Montagues were forbidden on the spot to bite any more thumbs at each other. "It will detract from the general gayety of the town," Mercutio remarked.
