Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fairy Tales From the Arabian Nights The King Of Persia' 5 capital was situated in an island; and his palace, which was very magnificent, was built upon the sea shore; his window looked towards the sea; and the fair slave' s, which was pretty near it, had also the same prospect, and it was the more pleasant on account of the sea's beating almost against, the foot of the wall. At the end of three days the fair slave, magnificently dressed, was alone in her chamber, sitting upon a sofa, and leaning against one Of the windows that faced the sea, when the king, being informed that he might visit her, came in. The slave hearing somebody walk in the room, immediately turned her head to see who it was. She knew him to be the king, but without showing the least surprise, or so much as rising from her seat to salute or receive him, she turned back to the window again as if he had been the most insignificant person in the world.
