  • The Puppet Show

    Martin Donisthorpe Armstrong

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, July 4, 2012)
    And at one of such meetings the President stood up and read out the following story, called The Garden of Noureddin A ll. There lived once in the town of Moussoul a young gentleman called Noureddin AH, the happy possessor of great beauty, great accomplishments and great wealth. And when he was come of age his tutors said to him, Sir, you have now arrived at mans estate and you have learnt from us all there is to be learnt. Go forth, therefore, choose carefully a wife not less beautiful than yourself, and live happily ever afterwards. Hearing this, Noureddin A li went forth and chose for himself a maiden called Fatima, lovely as the harvest moon, and he bought himself a house set in a little rose-garden in which to live happily ever afterwards. But when he had lived there three or four years he became discontented, for, as he said, the place was not worthy of the extreme beauty of his Fatima. Wherefore they packed up, and himself and Fatima, followed by twenty camels, twenty dromedaries and all their retinue, went forth to find a more suitable home. A nd, having wandered up and down the land for three months, they came to a garden of such beauty that, after careful and detailed consideration, Noureddin exclaimed, It is not unworthy of my Fatima. A nd, having so exclaimed, he purchased it out of hand.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
