The Pacha of Many Tales “Mustapha, let Menouni know what it is to tell a story to a pacha, even though it is rather a long one, and I thought the princess would never have been married.” The Pacha of Many Tales "They are the words of wisdom," replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales True, the tschorbadji had attempted to deny this, but the additional expense was nevertheless clearly owing to the pacha's presence in Cavalla.

The Pacha of Many Tales “Merciful Allah!” exclaimed the pacha, “why, it must have been Mahomet himself.” The Pacha of Many Tales “I doubt whether we shall ever come to the doubt,” interrupted the pacha impatiently, “or the princess to a husband.” The Pacha of Many Tales "That I will," said the pacha, going up to them: "to-morrow I will hear both your stories, and decide upon the merits of each." The Pacha of Many Tales The ship presents a brilliant spectacle, and it may well be that the pacha is to embark this very evening.

The Pacha of Many Tales “Let us have the facts, which did not escape thee, friend, and let the mists of doubt be cleared away before the glory of the pacha,” replied Mustapha. The Pacha of Many Tales Slave,” continued the pacha, addressing the Greek who was in attendance, with his arms folded and his eyes cast down to the ground; “coffee and the strong water of the Giaour.” The Pacha of Many Tales "Go on with your story," repeated the pacha angrily. The Pacha of Many Tales "But then it depends on what your heart prompts," said the pacha, casting a long, searching glance at the pale countenance of the young bim bashi. Mohammed Ali and His House “This is all very true, I dare say,” observed the pacha, “but you will oblige me by leaving out all those you knows, which I agree with your comrade Hussan to be very tedious.” The Pacha of Many Tales “Menouni, it is the pleasure of the pacha that you proceed.” The Pacha of Many Tales “No, by our beard,” rejoined the pacha; “it is for you to tell your story and for me to make remarks when it is over.” The Pacha of Many Tales Holy Allah!" exclaimed the pacha, yawning; "is this the bulbul singing to the rose?—What is it all about, Mustapha? or what is it written for, but to send one asleep? The Pacha of Many Tales How little the viceroy of to-day resembles the exiled pacha of the past, during his weary sojourn in Cavalla, with nothing to enliven him but his little struggle with the boy Mohammed and his harem! Mohammed Ali and His House Now my father, you know, not being inclined to pay any attention to such an old woman, replied, you know—” “Holy Allah!” exclaimed the pacha in a rage to Mustapha, “what does this man deserve?” The Pacha of Many Tales Shall I narrate how the nightingales sang themselves to death—shall I— “No, pray don’t,” interrupted the pacha, “only let us know one thing—was the beautiful Babe-bi-bobu married at last?” The Pacha of Many Tales Depend upon it, thereby hangs a good story; we will have that first—and then,” whispered the pacha, “her head off afterwards.” The Pacha of Many Tales "By the beard of the prophet, that is well said, and very true!" replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The capitan pacha can leave you no better token of his friendship than this young hero, who is entirely devoted to you. Mohammed Ali and His House The pacha held up his finger to Mustapha, as a sign to stop, that he might overhear their discourse. The Pacha of Many Tales “Do you presume to make conditions with his sublime highness the pacha?” exclaimed Mustapha. The Pacha of Many Tales And the old beldame folded her arms, and looked the pacha boldly in the face. The Pacha of Many Tales "Then why did you make such long apostrophes to the dead Cerise, when you observed that the pacha was impatient." The Pacha of Many Tales "I was passionate, and you had excited my wrath," replies the pacha, gently inclining his head. Mohammed Ali and His House Murakhas, you are dismissed,” continued the pacha to the Greek slave, who retired. The Pacha of Many Tales “By the beard of the Prophet!” muttered the pacha; “but never mind.” The Pacha of Many Tales “I have not heard of it,” said the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "I dare say you are very right," answered the pacha, "but I don't understand a word you have said." The Pacha of Many Tales A house shall be prepared for you," said the pacha; "I will see to this myself. Mohammed Ali and His House “Stop,” said the pacha; “I wish to know, whether you believe that the Virgin, as you call her, did thrust the head of the image into the hole in the bottom of the ship.” The Pacha of Many Tales These Franks are strange people,” observed the pacha to the vizier; “they’ve a tear for every woman.” The Pacha of Many Tales “I wish to Heaven she was,” observed the pacha, impatiently. The Pacha of Many Tales "Aferin, excellent:" exclaimed the pacha; "and when will he be here?" The Pacha of Many Tales The general, incensed at this shameful abuse of confidence, immediately dispatched two of his adjutants to the capitan pacha, to demand an explanation and call him to account for the outrage. Mohammed Ali and His House “Well your highness, you know—” “I don’t know, Ali: how can I know until you tell me,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha held out much longer than was at first anticipated: indeed, so long as to cause no little degree of anxiety in the capital. The Pacha of Many Tales “By the sword of the Prophet! there is one fact—you were a very great coward,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "I am here in obedience to the will of the pacha," replied the man in a most musical voice, as he salaamed low. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha was, however, not to be found. Mohammed Ali and His House “Then why did you make such long apostrophes to the dead Cerise, when you observed that the pacha was impatient?” The Pacha of Many Tales “Aferin, excellent!” cried the pacha, as soon as this was explained. The Pacha of Many Tales “What may the dish of kangaroos be composed of?” inquired Mustapha, in obedience to the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales God is great!" cried the pacha—"Then it must be so—I have heard that the English are very fond of beef. The Pacha of Many Tales Soon afterward a boat came to shore, and the boulouk bashi, Mohammed Ali, demanded, in the name of the capitan pacha, to be conducted to the presence of the English general. Mohammed Ali and His House “That story’s ended!” observed the pacha in a rage. The Pacha of Many Tales “Let me assist,” said the pacha, and retreated a few paces; he and Mustapha backed against the door with all their force. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha’s rage was now a little appeased. The Pacha of Many Tales What!" cried the pacha, in a rage, "you drowned a true believer—an aga of janissaries! The Pacha of Many Tales With an air of profound deference and humility, he delivered the message of the capitan pacha, and expressed his own regret of the fearful event that had occurred. Mohammed Ali and His House “Allah karim!—God is merciful!” exclaimed the pacha as soon as the maniac had been carried away. The Pacha of Many Tales They then hoisted her on their shoulders: and marched off with her to the palace, followed by Mustapha and the pacha, the latter quite delighted with his adventure. The Pacha of Many Tales “Sultan’s slippers! and time has been!” cried the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "May he and his father's grave be eternally defiled!" responded the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The nucleus of this army that is to be formed consists of the four thousand Albanians sent me by the capitan pacha, and these Albanians count double. Mohammed Ali and His House “That I will,” said the pacha, going up to them: “to-morrow I will hear both your stories, and decide upon the merits of each.” The Pacha of Many Tales The old woman screamed, and then, jumping on the body of the pacha, caught him by the throat, crying, “Thieves! murder!” The Pacha of Many Tales Curses on the devil!” exclaimed the pacha; “but this is pretty treatment for a pacha.” The Pacha of Many Tales "By the beard of the Prophet, wonderful!" exclaimed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales With a respectful inclination of the head Mohammed withdrew, and, returning to his boat, was rapidly conveyed on board the admiral's ship, where the capitan pacha awaited him. Mohammed Ali and His House “I’ll see that,” replied the pacha, in a savage tone; and making a sign, the executioner made his appearance. The Pacha of Many Tales “No lie, pacha, no lie!” screamed the old woman in her wrath. The Pacha of Many Tales “It means a great deal, pacha, for it refers to my life—you want the story.” The Pacha of Many Tales They then hoisted her on their shoulders, and marched off with her to the palace, followed by Mustapha and the pacha, the latter quite delighted with his adventure. The Pacha of Many Tales It is well," said the pacha; "let them figure at the grand entrance of the viceroy into Cairo. Mohammed Ali and His House “Well,” observed the pacha, “I never heard of so large a snake before; did you, Mustapha?” The Pacha of Many Tales And why has she a fish’s tail?” inquired the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales I hastened to the pacha’s presence, and laid at his feet the four heads. The Pacha of Many Tales "It means a great deal pacha, for it refers to my life—you want the story." The Pacha of Many Tales This is also murmured by the capitan pacha, who stands on the deck of the admiral's ship, and he orders that the Turkish ships weigh anchor, and sail out of the harbor of Alexandria. Mohammed Ali and His House “Give him ten pieces of gold,” said the pacha, rising from the throne, and waddling behind the curtain. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha nodded and the old woman proceeded. The Pacha of Many Tales “Knowest thou, vile wretch, that thou hast taken by the throat, and nearly strangled, the Lord of Life—the pacha himself,” said Mustapha. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha nodded his head to Mustapha, as if convinced; and then said, "You may proceed." The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha also spoke a few kindly words to him, and afterward entered his boat to return to the shore of Aboukir. Mohammed Ali and His House “Pray what is a waterspout?” inquired the pacha; “I never heard of one before.” The Pacha of Many Tales “Mustapha,” said the pacha, “let this old woman be carefully guarded; to-morrow afternoon we will understand the meaning of those strange words, ‘the time has been.’ The Pacha of Many Tales Holy Prophet! what a lying old hag!” exclaimed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "There is but one God, and Mahomet is his Prophet," said the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales All is in readiness to weigh the anchor and sail as soon as the pacha shall have come on board. Mohammed Ali and His House “And is she really dead now, Huckaback?” inquired the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “Strike, pacha, strike!” cried the old woman scornfully. The Pacha of Many Tales “By the beard of the pacha, I have no doubts on the subject,” observed Mustapha. The Pacha of Many Tales "Take away these carcases, and proclaim Ali as the new pacha." The Pacha of Many Tales He considered it somewhat presumptuous to advise him, the capitan pacha. Mohammed Ali and His House “By God and his Prophet, these Franks are great fool about women,” observed the pacha to Mustapha. The Pacha of Many Tales The young woman was dismissed to the pacha’s harem, the old woman to curse as much as she pleased, and Hudusi with full permission to doubt any thing but the justice of the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “May we never have it at all; then shall we escape, O pacha.” The Pacha of Many Tales "Right, good vizier—right—recollect, pacha, what I have said: time has been." The Pacha of Many Tales "I am called Mohammed Ali, son of Ibrahim Aga," replied Mohammed, inclining his head with an expression of such profound reverence that the proud capitan pacha was well pleased, and smiled graciously. Mohammed Ali and His House “God is great!” said the pacha, taking the bottle from his mouth, after a long draught, and handing it to his vizier. The Pacha of Many Tales “Well, it may be all true,” observed the pacha, looking at the wrinkled and hideous object before him. The Pacha of Many Tales Right, good vizier—right—recollect, pacha, what I have said. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha nodded, and the old woman proceeded. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha looked at him keenly, and said in a low voice, "One can see that you are a novice." Mohammed Ali and His House Praise be to God!” exclaimed the pacha, as the divan closed. The Pacha of Many Tales He had often mentioned to me the distinguished services of a young seraskier, whom he had lately appointed capitar pacha, to combat in the north against a barbarous nation called Sclavonians, or Russians. The Pacha of Many Tales Yes, I may proceed; but I tell you pacha, that if you doubt what I say once more, I will return your twenty pieces of gold, and hold my tongue. The Pacha of Many Tales "Let me assist," said the pacha, and retreated a few paces; he and Mustapha backed against the door with all their force. The Pacha of Many Tales "Then you will achieve success in Egypt," said the pacha. Mohammed Ali and His House “Let him approach, then, Mustapha,” said the pacha joyfully; and the renegade immediately made his appearance. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha appeared to be in high good humour, and so was the vizier. The Pacha of Many Tales “We must drive away the mists of suspense by the sunbeams of hope,” replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha's rage was now a little appeased. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha bows a kindly greeting in every direction, and then casts a glance toward the horizon, where, in the purple distance, the pyramids stand out, sharply defined against the sky. Mohammed Ali and His House Huckaback, we will hear your sixth voyage to-morrow”—and the pacha retired behind the screen, and, as usual, went into the apartment of the women. The Pacha of Many Tales “It is here,” replied the vizier, drinking off his coffee; while the pacha watched him from the corner of his small grey eye. The Pacha of Many Tales In the name of the Most High, O officer, whom seekest thou?” exclaimed the pacha with emotion. The Pacha of Many Tales Mustapha," said the pacha, "let this old woman be carefully guarded; to-morrow afternoon we will understand the meaning of those strange words, 'the time has been.' The Pacha of Many Tales "The capitan pacha has erected a bloody but a great monument to himself," says be, when Hassan has finished his narrative. Mohammed Ali and His House There is but one God, and Mahomet is his Prophet,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales And the capidji bachi produced a silken bowstring, and at the same time he handed the fatal scroll to the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “The coffee,” muttered Mustapha, as he heard the pacha’s last words. The Pacha of Many Tales "It must have been a long time ago, then," observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "I count on you," replied the pacha, inclining his head graciously. Mohammed Ali and His House Take my life, O pacha! but doubt not the fidelity of thy slave.” The Pacha of Many Tales “I’m sure I don’t wonder at their being tired,” observed the pacha, yawning, “if they were like you.” The Pacha of Many Tales “Yes, let him go on; wake me when the story is ended,” replied the pacha, laying down his pipe. The Pacha of Many Tales The old woman screamed, and then, jumping on the body of the pacha, caught him by the throat, crying, "Thieves; murder!" The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha followed him with an evil glance. Mohammed Ali and His House “God is great, and the sultan is wise,” replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “What can she mean,” said the pacha to Mustapha, “by the time has been?” The Pacha of Many Tales The old woman’s ears were keen, she had heard the question of Mustapha, and she easily imagined the rest; and she had heard the reply of the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales Fortunately, then," replied Mustapha, "you are not required by the pacha to hold your tongue. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha now sees a figure coming up the walk. Mohammed Ali and His House “By the holy Prophet, but you seemed fond enough of gold just now,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales I still beg for my subsistence; and now, pacha, you have my story, and I think you will acknowledge that I may well say that “Time has been.” The Pacha of Many Tales Has she not been a sultana?” observed the pacha, with some appearance of feeling. The Pacha of Many Tales "No lie, pacha, no lie!" screamed the old woman in her wrath. The Pacha of Many Tales "You are right, tschorbadji, a last farewell, I trust," said the pacha, laughing. Mohammed Ali and His House The pacha nodded his head to Mustapha, as if convinced; and then said, “You may proceed.” The Pacha of Many Tales The only danger which could threaten the pacha was from the imperial court at Stamboul, for the troops were devoted to him, and the people of the country had no very serious cause of complaint. The Pacha of Many Tales “There is but one God, and Mahomet is his Prophet,” said the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales My heart is light this evening," said the pacha, laying down his pipe, "let us drink deep of the forbidden juice. The Pacha of Many Tales "You have heard this oath, father, and Allah has heard it, too," said Osman, solemnly rising from his couch and turning the gaze of his large luminous eyes full on the pacha's countenance. Mohammed Ali and His House “Will you do as I order you?” said the pacha angrily. The Pacha of Many Tales “Take away these carcases, and proclaim Ali, as the new pacha.” The Pacha of Many Tales “The sultan, the Lord of Life, has sent this to you, O pacha! as a proof of his indulgence and great mercy.” The Pacha of Many Tales "The sultan, the Lord of Life, has sent this to you, O pacha! as a proof of his indulgence and great mercy." The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha regarded him long and gloomily, and then bowed his head slowly. Mohammed Ali and His House “Anna senna! curses on your mother!” cried the pacha, in an angry tone. The Pacha of Many Tales “I am here in obedience to the will of the pacha,” replied the man in a most musical voice, as he salaamed low. The Pacha of Many Tales “The pacha desires me to say, that there is but one God, and Mahomet is his Prophet; and begs that you will go on with your story.” The Pacha of Many Tales O pacha!" replied he, "who can dispute the will of heaven's vicegerent? The Pacha of Many Tales Both were attentively observing the pacha's harem, and it surprised them to see that lights were being carried to and fro in the lower apartments at so late an hour. Mohammed Ali and His House “I should like to know what that fellow means by distilling people,” observed the pacha, “and also why a Dominican monk should know wine better than others, Mustapha, I must see those two men.” The Pacha of Many Tales “How much do you say he sold his wife for?” said the pacha to Mustapha, when this part of the story was repeated to him. The Pacha of Many Tales “Be it so,” replied the pacha; “let Menouni be rewarded, and we will try to find some other story-teller, until his return from his pilgrimage.” The Pacha of Many Tales "The coffee," muttered Mustapha, as he heard the pacha's last words. The Pacha of Many Tales He is motionless, no quivering muscle indicates that he has understood the pacha's words of triumph and mockery. Mohammed Ali and His House What crimes hath he committed, that he would have his pardon granted before he tells his story?” said the pacha to Mustapha. The Pacha of Many Tales “Mustapha,” observed the pacha, taking his pipe out of his mouth, “what makes the poets talk so much about the Book of Fate?” The Pacha of Many Tales O pacha! doth not Hafiz say, ‘Every moment you enjoy, count it gain?’ The Pacha of Many Tales Mashallah! but this is wonderful!" exclaimed the pacha—"a woman hold her tongue for eighteen months! The Pacha of Many Tales And," continued the pacha, "as his lieutenant, young Mohammed Ali, if still living, may be serviceable. Mohammed Ali and His House “Very true,” observed the pacha; “that’s not a bad story: Mustapha, give him five pieces of gold, and allow him to depart.” The Pacha of Many Tales “Two tails! was he a pacha in his own country?” The Pacha of Many Tales “Let the dog with two tails be admitted,” replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "Mustapha," observed the pacha, taking his pipe out of his mouth, "what makes the poets talk so much about the Book of Fate?" The Pacha of Many Tales The capitan pacha had himself come over in his admiral's ship to greet the newly arrived soldiers, and to review the fleet of stately vessels-of-war. Mohammed Ali and His House I do not understand much about it,” continued the pacha, turning round to Mustapha; “but how can we expect a good story from an unbelieving dog of a Christian?” The Pacha of Many Tales “Let the dog with two tails rise,” said the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “You may proceed,” said Mustapha, at a sign from the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "You may proceed," said Mustapha, at a sign from the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales With a haughty and astonished expression, the capitan pacha regarded the young man that stood blushing before him, his eyes sparkling with unaccustomed lustre. Mohammed Ali and His House “Huckaback,” observed the pacha, “it appears to me that in your younger days you were a great scoundrel.” The Pacha of Many Tales “By the sword of the Prophet! now the caliph appears to be the fool,” interrupted the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “Then, O pacha! will you permit your slave to send for some bottles of the fire-water of the Giaour, that we may drink and smoke until we are elevated to the seven heavens?” The Pacha of Many Tales "Who art thou, dog?" said the pacha, pleased with the man's humility. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha assented to this by his silence, and the governor hastened to call the slaves, that they might bear his son down into the garden. Mohammed Ali and His House “Perfectly well,” replied the pacha, “you left off at the beginning of your story; but I hope you will finish it this evening, as I have already forgotten a great deal of what you said.” The Pacha of Many Tales “It must have been a long time ago, then,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales What is that but a lie?” exclaimed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales Not so," replied the pacha; "I am tired of war and all that appertains to it. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha pressed Osman's hand once more, assured him of his friendship, and promised him solemnly that Mohammed need no longer be fearful and anxious. Mohammed Ali and His House The vizier bowed; and the pacha returned to the palace without further adventure. The Pacha of Many Tales I reflected again, and the result was, that I determined to have nothing more to do with the business, and that neither the sultan nor the pacha should be the better for my exertions. The Pacha of Many Tales “Those who threaten me in disguise, will find that no excuse, we swear by our beard,” replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "Then, O pacha! will you permit your slave to send for some bottles of the fire-water of the Giaour, that we may drink and smoke until we are elevated to the seven heavens?" The Pacha of Many Tales He then bowed profoundly to the pacha, and walked out beside the couch on which the slaves were carrying his son. Mohammed Ali and His House Have you nothing more to say?” inquired the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales What son of a dog is this, to sit in our presence?” exclaimed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “What does he say?” inquired the pacha, impatiently. The Pacha of Many Tales "Sultan's slippers! and time has been!" cried the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The pacha's countenance grew still darker when the door had closed behind father and son. Mohammed Ali and His House Upon my eyes be it,” replied Mustapha, bowing low, as the pacha retired to his harem. The Pacha of Many Tales “Why didn’t you put her in a sack?” inquired the pacha, when Mustapha explained. The Pacha of Many Tales “What is the cause?” demanded the pacha hastily, as next day Mustapha listened with apparent patience to the long details of one of the petitioners for justice. The Pacha of Many Tales The old woman's ears were keen, she had heard the question of Mustapha, and she had heard the reply of the pacha; and she easily imagined the rest. The Pacha of Many Tales "Then you have a trace?" said the pacha, his countenance lighting up with joy. Mohammed Ali and His House “Holy Prophet,” exclaimed the pacha, “is that woman come to life again?” The Pacha of Many Tales “May he and his father’s grave be eternally defiled!” responded the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “By the beard of the Prophet, wonderful!” exclaimed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The only danger which could threaten the pacha was from the imperial court at Stamboul; for the troops were devoted to him, and the people of the country had no very serious cause of complaint. The Pacha of Many Tales "It is well," said the pacha, with a slight inclination of his haughty head. Mohammed Ali and His House “He was a great story-teller,” observed the pacha, after another pause. The Pacha of Many Tales “By the Prophet, but he laughs at our beards!” exclaimed the pacha, angrily. The Pacha of Many Tales When Mustapha translated all this to the pacha, the latter was lost in astonishment. The Pacha of Many Tales "God is great, and the sultan is wise," replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The Sublime Porte has determined," so read the pacha's letter to the governor, "the Sublime Porte has determined to oppose the French occupation of Egypt with energy. Mohammed Ali and His House “Aferin, excellent:” exclaimed the pacha; “and when will he be here?” The Pacha of Many Tales I never heard that staring at the moon was an amusement before,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “By the sword of the Prophet, but they were well out of this scrape!” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales "It is here," replied the vizier, drinking off his coffee; while the pacha watched him from the corner of his small grey eye. The Pacha of Many Tales Cavalla was also to furnish its quota, and the pacha's instructions were, that the governor should with all speed uniform three hundred young men, and send them to him. Mohammed Ali and His House The pacha’s pipe was refilled, the coffee was poured down their respective throats, and the forbidden spirits quaffed with double delight, arising from the very circumstance that they were forbidden. The Pacha of Many Tales “Good; I should like to have seen that,” replied the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales “Ask him if she was handsome?” said the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales And the old beldam folded her arms, and looked the pacha boldly in the face. The Pacha of Many Tales And you, Mohammed," said the pacha, smiling scornfully, "what is your ambition? Mohammed Ali and His House “True,” said the pacha, shaking his beard with great dignity and satisfaction. The Pacha of Many Tales “How does he mean? desire him to explain,” said the pacha, after Mustapha had conveyed the intelligence. The Pacha of Many Tales “Mashallah! but he swims well,” said the pacha, breaking up the audience. The Pacha of Many Tales "Strike, pacha, strike!" cried the old woman, scornfully. The Pacha of Many Tales "Then I am sorry for you, poor child!" said the pacha. Mohammed Ali and His House “Very true,” observed the pacha—“now you may go on with your story.” The Pacha of Many Tales “I can’t say that I ever have them,” observed the pacha. The Pacha of Many Tales The officers were despatched; and in less than an hour, during which the pacha and his vizier smoked in silence, the cadi with the others made their appearance.
