148 ARABIAN NIGHTS palace there was such a noise going on round him that the princess bade her slave look out of the window and ask what was the matter. The slave said it was the holy woman, curing people by her touch of their ailments, whereupon the princess, who had long desired to see Fatima, sent for her. On coming to the princess the magician offered up a prayer for her health and prosperity. When he had done the princess made him sit by her, and begged him to stay with her always. The false Fatima, who wished for nothing better, consented, but kept his veil down for fear of discovery. The princess showed him the hall, and asked him what he thought of it. " It is truly beautiful," said the false Fatima. " In my mind it wants but one thing." " And what is that ? " said the princess. " If only a roc's egg," replied he, " were hung up from the middle of this dome, it would be the wonder of the world." After this the princess could think of nothing but a roc's egg, and when Aladdin returned from hunting he found her in a very ill humor. He begged to know what was amiss, and she told him that all her pleasure in the hall was spoilt for the want of a roc's egg hanging from the dome. " If that is all," replied Aladdin, " you shall soon be happy." He left her and rubbed the lamp, and when the genie appeared commanded him to bring a roc's egg. The genie gave such a loud and terrible shriek that the hall shook. " Wretch " ! he said, " is it not enough that I have done everything for you, but you must command me to bring my master and hang him up in the midst of this dome ? You and your wife and your palace deserve to be burnt to ashes ; but this request does not come from you, but from the brother of the African magician whom you destroyed. He is now in your palace disguised as the holy woman—whom he murdered. He it was who put that wish into your wife's head. Take care of 5ôurself, for he means to kill you." So saying the genie disappeared. Aladdin went back to the princess, saying his head ached, and requesting that the holy Fatima should be fetched to lay her hands on it. But when the magician came near, Aladdin, seizing his dagger, pierced him to, the heart. " What have you done ? " " cried the princess. " You have killed the holy woman !
ALADDIN'S WONDERFUL LAMP 149 " Not so," replied Aladdin, " but a wicked magician," and told her of how she had been deceived. After this Aladdin and his wife lived in peace. He suc- ceeded the Sultan when he died, and reigned for many years, leaving behind him a long line of kings.
