The Alhambra . testable mimicof man. I hate the nauseous animal. What say you to the famous black singer Casem, from theroyal harem, in Morocco ? They say he has a voice as fine asa womans. I am terrified at the sight of these black slaves, said thedelicate Zorahayda : besides I have lost all relish for music. Ah 1 my child, you would not say so, replied the oldwoman slyly, had you heard the music I heard last evening,from the three Spanish cavaliers whom we met on our bless me, children ; what is the matter that you blush soand are in such a flutter ?

Nothing, nothing, good mother : pray proceed. Well; as I was passing by the ^ermilion Towers lastevening, I saw the three cavaliers resting after their dayslabour.

Allahforgive me ! I could not help being moved at hearing the songs. ^^^i* ^ WSi\^
