Note 324 — KING SHAH BAKHT AND HIS WAZIR AL-RAHWAN.[295]
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
Arab. “Mu’arris”: in vol. i. 338, I derived the word from ’Ars marriage, like the Germ. Kupplerin. This was a mere mistake; the root is ’Ars (with a Sád not a Sín) and means a pimp who shows off or displays his wares.
