Are you strong enough to carry
things for me?

You will be well paid

Aleppo, lemons from Egypt....
:40:46
...myrtle, camomile...
:40:49
...pomegranates, white roses...
:40:53
...nutmeg ring cakes, sweets...
:40:58
...short pastry, puff pastry,
sugar and incense...

Taci Almolup, son of King Sul e Man,
had grown into a handsome young man
:41:36
Everyone who saw him was enchanted
:41:38
Inspirer of poems...
:41:41
...even the most modest became
shameless for his love
:41:44
As the poet said:
:41:46
"I embrace him and become drunk
with his perfume"
:41:52
"Like a windswept branch,
I became drunk without drinking...
:41:54
"...intoxicated by the liquor
of his saliva"
