Note 378 — THE MAN OF AL-YAMAN AND HIS SIX SLAVE-GIRLS.
Richard Francis Burton translation
“Habáb” or “Habá,” the fine particles of dust, which we call motes. The Cossid (Arab. Kásid) is the Anglo-Indian term for a running courier (mostly under Government), the Persian “Shátir” and the Guebre Rávand.
