Note 429 — KING MOHAMMED BIN SABAIK AND THE MERCHANT HASAN. (continued 2)

Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2

Kamín (in Bresl. Edit. “bayn” = between) Al-Bahrayn = Ambuscade or lurking-place of the two seas. The name of the city in Lane is “’Emareeych” imaginary but derived from Emarch (’imárah) = being populous. Trébutien (ii. 161) takes from Bresl. Edit. “Amar” and translates the port-name, “le lieu de refuge des deux mers.”
