things.' The Wezeer said to him, ' My son, it is
their desire to go before thee that they may create a
dissension between thee and El-Melik 'Eesa.' The
Emeer Beybars said, ' There is no power nor strength

said to him, 'O Beybars, it is my wish to send
'Osman Ibn-El-Hebla* and Mohammad Ibn-Ka-

them; and said to them, ' Go before the troops to
the castle of El-Karak, and whatever may happen
between them and El-Melik 'Eesa inform us of it.'

the house of thy (adoptive) mother, the sitt Fat'meh
Bint-El-Akwasee; and do not go out of the house
until I shall have sent to thee 'Osman.' He answered, ' It is right.' So the Emeer Beybars rose,
and went to his house, and passed the night, and
got up in the morning, and set out on his journey
to Esh-Sham, and took up his abode in the house
of his mother, the sitt Fat'meh Bint-El-Akwasee.

rogue whom Beybars took into his service as groom, and compelled to
vow repentance at the shrine of the seyyideh Nefeeseh (great-granddaughter of the Imam Hasan), and, soon after, made his mukaddam,
or chief of his servants.
