Note 124 — PART I. MASTER THOMAS DALLAM’S DIARY. (continued 2)
Reading edition
Mohamed III put nineteen of his brothers to death on his accession; he was the last of the heirs allowed liberty. Henceforward, they were kept in the Kaweh, or cage, in the seraglio, from which they came out to rule or die. Presumably it is the Kaweh which Dallam describes.
