^The bediouness walks in on her little white mare, Johar and looks at all the different things and the beautiful horses. She checks each one, looking for lameness, metabolic problems (at the time being), running her hands over their bodies, and finally looking in the silken pouches about thier necks at their pedigrees. Finding no vices in any, yet seeing the wild look in their eyes. True desert horses. She turns to the man...^ "I know this is a big order, but I'll take all of them. Don't worry, they are going to a good home. I have a nice size area in the desert with an oasis for them." ^She strokes each horse in turns, saying a few words to each, taking longer with the foals. Next she moves onto the silks and perfumes and such. She picks out 9 silks and 9 tasseled 'halters'. A deep blue, a black, a honey gold, a stormy grey, a brown, a white, a crimson, a light green, and a milky yellow. She picks out two bottles of perfume, jasmine and lily. She wanders on, picking out a new silken garmet of azure for herself. She stops at the camels, peering at each. She picks out one large, 6 year old bull and three cows, 4,4,5 years old, all three giving milk, and one male and one female calf. Satisfied, she pays for them all with a sum of the gold her father had given her as a parting gift. She puts the silk and various other things she pruchased on the bulls, then ties the horses to the back of the camels, riding in the front on her little mare, Johar...^
