Note 101 — HASAN OF BASSORAH.[5] (continued 2)

Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2

In this tale the Bresl. Edit, more than once adds “And let us and you send a blessing to the Lord of Lords” (or to “Mohammed,” or to the “Prophet”); and in vol. v. p. 52 has a long prayer. This is an act of contrition in the tale-teller for romancing against the expressed warning of the Founder of Al-Islam.
