Crethida fabellas dulces garrire peritam Prosequitur lacrymis filia moesta Sami: Blandam lanifici sociam sine fine loquacem, Quam tenet hic, cunctas quae manet, alta quies.

[Footnote 1: It is right to add that at Aleppo an officer called Bekir Sami guarded 50,000 Armenians whom he had collected from neighbouring districts, who were threatened with massacre, and I find that a German missionary states that there were 45,000 Armenians alive in Aleppo.

And sweetest melodies of bright Sami, Our Happy Fields above dear Subartu; Come nestle closely with those lips of love And balmy breath, and I with thee shall rove Through Sari past ere life on earth was known, And Time unconscious sped not, nor had flown.

behold the Sami! Arranged in their glory the mighty gods come

[Footnote 27: "Sami," heavens (plural).]

Queen Daunat's son, our Izdubar, His glory to the Sami raise!

Cantus ad processiones et benedictiones Sami sacramenti.

Cantus ad processiones et benedictiones Sami sacramenti.

Mr. Sami Joo is endeavouring to sell boots from the bow, while Guffar Ali is pressing embroidery on our acceptance from the stern.

This is the Sami tree, which hath got but a single leaf, and this is a most excellent lake.

"Arjuna said, 'Hard by yon cemetery and near that inaccessible peak is a mighty Sami tree, throwing-about its gigantic branches and difficult to ascend.

Stowing away our weapons on the Sami tree, let us, O Bharata, go to the city, and live there, free from anxiety!'" Vaisampayana continued, "Having O bull of the Bharata race spoken thus to king Yudhishthira

" SECTION XXXIX Vaisampayana said, "Beholding that bull among men seated on the car in the habit of a person of the third sex, driving toward the Sami tree, having taken (the flying) Uttara up, all the great car-warriors of the Kurus with Bhishma and Drona at their head, became affrighted at heart, suspecting the comer to be Dhananjaya.

SECTION XL Vaisampayana said, "Having reached that Sami tree, and having ascertained Virata's son to be exceedingly delicate and inexperienced in battle, Partha addressed him, saying, 'Enjoined by me, O Uttara, quickly take down (from this tree) some bows that are there.

Heir to the king of the Matsyas, and born in a noble family, why should I, O prince, make thee do such a reproachable deed?'" Vaisampayana said, "Thus addressed by Partha, Virata's son, decked in ear-rings, alighted from the car, and climbed up that Sami tree reluctantly.

SECTION XLVI Vaisampayana said, "Making Uttara his charioteer, and circumambulating the Sami tree, the son of Pandu set out taking all his weapons with him.

And that mighty car-warrior set out with Uttara as the driver of his car, having taken down that banner with the lion's figure and deposited it at the foot of the Sami tree.

I shall not, however, O Savyasachin, discover thee to my father, as long as thou wilt not tell me to do it.'" Vaisampayana continued, "Having vanquished the hostile army and wrested the whole of the cattle wealth from the Kurus, Jishnu returned again to the cemetery and having approached the same Sami tree stood there with body mangled by the arrows of the enemy.

And the Matsya and the Bharata princes having thus consulted together re-approached the same Sami tree.

And gratified with the victory they had won, and arrived at the foot of the Sami tree, they wore on their persons and took up on their car the ornaments and robes they had left there.
