Note 325 — TALE OF KAMAR AL-ZAMAN, (continued 2)

Richard Francis Burton translation

Arab. "Manáyá," plur. of Maniyat = death. Mr. R. S. Poole (the Academy, April 26, 1879) reproaches Mr. Payne for confounding "Muniyat" (desire) with "Maniyat" (death); but both are written the same except when vowel-points are used.
