59 Translator's slight interpolation.

60 [I would read Darb El-Munkadhī, a street which (probably before
1350) was renamed Darb El-Emir Bektemir El-Ustāddār. S. L.-P.]

61 The rest of this paragraph and the next two paragraphs, omitted
in CT, are translated almost entirely from C2co; in a small part
from B.

62 The rest of this paragraph is from C200.

63 Lit., Mother of the World.

64 763, CT; 673, B.

65 So CT; El-Mustanşir bi-llah, B.

66 I have altered the order in which the brothers are described, and
omitted two particulars, to agree with the sequel.

67 This paragraph is from C200, being omitted in CT.

68 Bakbak, CT; in another place, Yakyak.

69 El-'Ashshār, CT. Most copies appear to read En-Neshshār
["Al Naschar"], "the Sawyer." I have substituted El-Feshshār,
"the Foolish Talker "or "Vain Boaster," which in the Arabic closely
resembles both.

70 Sons of the Kings, CT.

71 Moʻallakah, a structure raised upon pillars.-Ghaḍā, a very
inflammable tree, resembling the tamarisk. [Palgrave says it is of the
genus Euphorbia and peculiar to Arabia. See Lane, Arabic Lex., s.v.,
vol. v. p. 2269.]

72 Omitted in CT.

3 Damascus supplied from a subsequent passage.

In CT, but extremely objectionable and unfit to be here trans-
lated.

75 From this point to the relation of the stratagem employed by
Zubeydeh I omit much that is unsuitable for translation.

76 The story of King 'Omar En-Noʻman, occupying Nights 44-107
and 137-145 (interrupted by the story of Taj-el-Mulūk, 107–137), or in
length nearly one-eighth of the whole work, is here omitted.

Kaṣabeh.

78 From this point to the end the story of 'Aziz and ‘Azizeh is
somewhat condensed in the translation.

79 I read nimsheh (also written nimjah and nimjāh, from Pers.
nīmjāh) instead of kamsheh.
