[FN#58] Arab. "Kullah" (in Egypt pron. "gulleh"), the wide

mouthed jug, called in the Hijaz "baradiyah;" "daurak" being the

narrow. They are used either for water or sherbet and, being made

of porous clay, "sweat," and keep the contents cool; hence all

old Anglo Egyptians drink from them, not from bottles. Sometimes

they are perfumed with smoke of incense, mastich or Kafal (Amyris

Kafal). For their graceful shapes see Lane's "Account of the

Manners and Customs of the Modern Egyptians" (chapt. v) I quote,

here and elsewhere, from the fifth edition, London, Murray, 1860.

[FN#59] "And what is?" etc. A popular way of expressing great

difference. So in India:-"Where is Rajah Bhoj (the great King)

and where is Ganga the oilman?"

[FN#60] Here, as in other places, I have not preserved the

monorhyme, but have ended like the English sonnet with a couplet;

as a rule the last two lines contain a "Husn makta'" or climax.
