Note (return) — FAS TO TIMBUCTOO,
Reading edition
Shabeeny's next stage was to Draha 6, which he reached in six days. The expense per camel was about six ducats, or thirty shillings sterling. The district of Draha abounds in the small hard date 7, which is very fine; from four to six drahems 8 (equal to two to three shillings sterling) is the price of a camel load of these dates.
