Richard Francis Burton translation

In Arab. usually shortened to “Hazár” (bird of a thousand tales = the Thousand), generally called “’Andalíb:” Galland has Bulbulhezer and some of his translators debase it to Bulbulkezer. See vol. v. 148, and the Hazár-dastán of Kazwíní (De Sacy, Chrest. iii. 413). These rarities represent the Rukh’s egg in “Alaeddin.”
