Note 482 — KING SHAH BAKHT AND HIS WAZIR AL-RAHWAN.[295] (continued 3)

Arab. “Muruwwah,” lit. manliness, especially in the sense of generosity. So the saying touching the “Miyán,” or Moslem of India:—

Fí ’l-ruz kuwwah:

Fí ’l Hindí muruwwah.

When rice have strength, you’ll haply find,

In Hindi man, a manly mind.
