Wezeer smelt him, seized him, and inflicted upon
him the " hadd ;"* and said to him, ' Didst thou
not vow to relinquish the drinking of wine ?'
'Osman answered, ' El-Melik 'Eesa, whom ye are
going to make Sultan, invited me.' The Wezeer
said, 'I purpose writing a letter for you to take and
give to the Emeer Beybars.' 'Osman replied,
1 Good.' So the Wezeer wrote the letter, and
'Osman took it and departed, and entered Esh-
Sham, and went to the house of the sitt Fat'meh,
and gave it to his master, who read it, and found it
to contain as follows.—' After salutations—from his
excellency the Grand Wezeer, the Wezeer Shaheen
El-Afram, to his honour the Emeer Beybars.
Know that the troops have aspersed thee, and
created dissensions between thee and El-Melik
'Eesa ; and accused thee of having poisoned his
father, El-Melik Es-Saleh Eiyoob. Now, on the
arrival of this paper, take care of thyself, and go not
out of the house, unless I shall have sent to thee.
And the conclusion of the letter is, that 'Osman
got drunk in the castle of El-Karak.'—Beybars was
vexed with 'Osman; and said to him, ' Come hither
and receive a present:' and he stretched forth his
hand, and laid hold of him. 'Osman said, ' What
ails thee ?' Beybars exclaimed, ' Did I not make
thee vow to relinquish the drinking of wine ?' ' Has
he told thee ?' asked 'Osman. * I will give thee a
treat,' said Beybars: and he took him, and threw
him down, and inflicted upon him the "hadd."
* How is it,' said 'Osman, ' that the king whom you
* Eighty stripes, the punishment ordained for drunkenness.
