THE STORY OF THE BIRD FENG

The wonderful bird, like a fire of many colours come down from heaven, alighted before the princess, dropping at her feet the portrait 1


YOUNG ROUSSELLE

What do you think of Young Rousselle? 8


LAYLÁ AND MAJNÚN

In a high chamber of the palace — it was as wondrous as that of a Sultan 16
If the desert were my home — then would I let the world go by 18
She would sit for hours, with the bird perched on the back of her hand, listening to its soft intonation of that one word 'Majnún' 22


THE NIGHTINGALE

Even the poor fisherman would pause in his work to listen 32


THREE KINGS OF ORIENT

O Star of Wonder, Star of Night 41


SINDBAD THE SAILOR

Knowest thou that my name is also Sindbad? 50


THE LITTLE SEAMSTRESS

I never at all

Saw sewing so small!

55


THE REAL PRINCESS

Not a wink the whole night long 58


MY LISETTE

'Tis Lisette whom I adore,

And with reason, more and more!

62


CINDERELLA

'There,' said her godmother, pointing with her wand, … 'pick it and bring it along' 72


THE CHILLY LOVER

O Ursula, for thee

My heart is burning,—
But I'm so cold!

80


THE STORY OF AUCASSIN AND NICOLETTE

But Nicolette one night escaped 82


BLUE BEARD

Seven and one are eight, madam! 86


CERBERUS

Cerberus, the black dog of Hades 99


THE LADY BADOURA

Nay, nay; I will not marry him 102


THE SLEEPER AWAKENED

Behold the reward of those who meddle in other people's affairs 120
