Note 15 — TUBA-FISHING
Reading edition
Allow me to call attention to the fact, whereof the significance I am hardly competent to judge, that in the Mohammedan Paradise ‘the most remarkable tree is called Tûba, or the tree of happiness,’ which among its manifold blessings, ‘will supply the blessed with food.’ Sale’s Koran. Preliminary Discourse, p. 68, ed. London, 1857.
