"Do you intend to sell that horse?" said King Cais to him, "for in that case you have the most eager buyer of all the Arabian tribesmen."

Cais waited until certain persons who were with him had retired, then he at once took horse, and repaired to the tribe of Fazarah, where everybody was taking their morning meal in their tents.

In spite of all that Cais could say, Hadifah remained firm in his resolution, and as his brother began to deride Cais, the latter lost his temper, and with a face blazing with wrath he asked of Hadifah, "What stake did you offer in your wager with my cousin?"

The two tribes, you must know, will be mutually estranged, for King Cais has been there in person; now he is a prince and the son of a prince.

Hadifah quickly learned the return of Antar, and knew that the hero was encouraging King Cais to run the race.

Let me go to King Cais, and I will not leave him until he promises to come to you and cancel the contract."

Thereupon Haml took horse, and went immediately to King Cais.

At last he has said: 'Very good, if Cais comes to me, and wishes to be released from the contract, I will annul it; but do not let any Arab think that I abandon the bet through fear of Antar.'

At this address of Haml, Cais became flushed with shame, for he was trusting and generous.

When the two contestants had mounted their horses King Cais gave this parting instruction to his groom: "Do not let the reins hang too loosely in managing Dahir; if you see him flag, stand up in your stirrups, and press his flanks gently with your legs.

Are words so scarce that you are obliged to use exactly those of Cais?

By the faith of an Arab, I will let all men of honor know that if Cais refuse to send the camels I will not leave one of his tents standing."

" Hadifah dissembled his contempt for these verses and the sheik who had pronounced them, but he ordered his son to go at once to Cais.

" On hearing these words Cais felt the light change to darkness before his eyes.

"Son of Zoheir," he cried to Cais, "it is a base action to slay a child; but it is good to meet in battle, to decide with these lances which shall predominate, you or me."

He is no longer the clear-headed messenger he was, when he was wont to assertno idle boast eitherthat he could "fetch an' cai' eq'il to any man."

The natives on the opposite side were vociferous to visit us, and were holding long conversations with Jack, who explained everything to them in a song, to which they would frequently exclaim in full chorus the words "Cai, cai, cai, cai, caigh" which they always repeated when anything was shown that excited their surprise.
