Baber speaks of one of his early friends, Khwaja Ka Mulai, as excelling in
falconry and acquainted with _Yadagar_ or the art of bringing on rain and
snow by means of enchantment. When the Russians besieged Kazan in 1552
they suffered much from the constant heavy rains, and this annoyance was
universally ascribed to the arts of the Tartar Queen, who was celebrated
as an enchantress. Shah Abbas believed he had learned the Tartar secret,
and put much confidence in it. (_P. Delia V._ I. 869.)

Columbus was not the man to neglect his opportunities, and there can be
no doubt that as soon as his purpose had established itself in his mind
he made use of every opportunity that presented itself for improving his
meagre scientific knowledge, in order that his proposal might be set
forth in a plausible form. In other words, he got up the subject. The
whole of his geographical reading with regard to the Indies up to this
time had been in the travels of Marco Polo; the others–whose works he
quoted from so freely in later years were then known to him only by name,
if at all. Behaim, however, could tell him a good deal about the
supposed circumference of the earth, the extent of the Asiatic continent,
and so on. Every new fact that Columbus heard he seized and pressed into
the service of his Idea; where there was a choice of facts, or a
difference of opinion between scientists, he chose the facts that were
most convenient, and the opinions that fitted best with his own beliefs.
The very word Indies was synonymous with unbounded wealth; there
certainly would be riches to tempt the King with; and Columbus, being a
religious man, hit also on the happy idea of setting forth the spiritual
glory of carrying the light of faith across the Sea of Darkness, and
making of the heathen a heritage for the Christian Church. So that, what
with one thing and another, he soon had his proposals formally arranged.

title I said to the Kalif: Thou art old,
/titlecategory1/category Thou hast no need of so much gold
I said to the Kalif: Thou art old,
Thou hast no need of so much gold.
Thou shouldst not have heaped and hidden it here,
Till the breath of Battle was hot and near,
But have sown through the land these useless hoards
To spring into shining blades of swords,
And keep thine honour sweet and clear.
* * * * *
Then into his dungeon I locked the drone,
And left him to feed there all alone
In the honey-cells of his golden hive:
Never a prayer, nor a cry, nor a groan
Was heard from those massive walls of stone,
Nor again was the Kalif seen alive.
This is the story, strange and true,
That the great Captain Alau
Told to his brother, the Tartar Khan,
When he rode that day into Cambalu.
By the road that leadeth to Ispahan. (_Longfellow_.)[1]

title[The _Ta-ming tien_ (Hall of great brightness) is without doubt what
/titlecategory1/categoryMarco Polo calls the Lords Great Palace
[The _Ta-ming tien_ (Hall of great brightness) is without doubt what
Marco Polo calls the Lords Great Palace…. He states, that it hath no
upper story; and indeed, the palace buildings which the Chinese call
_tien_ are always of one story. Polo speaks also of a very fine pillared
balustrade (the _chu lang_, pillared verandah, of the Chinese author).
Marco Polo states that the basement of the great palace is raised some
ten palms above the surrounding soil. We find in the _Ku kung i lu_: The
basement of the Ta-ming tien is raised about 10 _chi_ above the soil.
There can also be no doubt that the Ta-ming tien stood at about the same
place where now the _Tai-ho tien_, the principal hall of the palace, is
situated. (_Bretschneider, Peking_, 28, note.)

Once more; in the last days of the year 1491, Columbus rode into the
brilliant camp which he had quitted a few weeks before with so heavy a
heart. Things were changed now. Instead of being a suitor, making a
nuisance of himself, and forcing his affairs on the attention of
unwilling officials, he was now an invited and honoured guest; much more
than that, he was in the position of one who believed that he had a great
service to render to the Crown, and who was at last to be permitted to
render it.

titleYou must know that the city of Cambaluc hath such a multitude of houses,
/titlecategory1/categoryand such a vast population inside the walls and outside, that it seems
quite past all possibility
You must know that the city of Cambaluc hath such a multitude of houses,
and such a vast population inside the walls and outside, that it seems
quite past all possibility. There is a suburb outside each of the gates,
which are twelve in number;[NOTE 1] and these suburbs are so great that
they contain more people than the city itself [for the suburb of one gate
spreads in width till it meets the suburb of the next, whilst they extend
in length some three or four miles]. In those suburbs lodge the foreign
merchants and travellers, of whom there are always great numbers who have
come to bring presents to the Emperor, or to sell articles at Court, or
because the city affords so good a mart to attract traders. [There are in
each of the suburbs, to a distance of a mile from the city, numerous fine
hostelries[NOTE 2] for the lodgment of merchants from different parts of
the world, and a special hostelry is assigned to each description of
people, as if we should say there is one for the Lombards, another for the
Germans, and a third for the Frenchmen.] And thus there are as many good
houses outside of the city as inside, without counting those that belong
to the great lords and barons, which are very numerous.

that if a chance shot from his bow strike any herd or flock, whether
belonging to one person or to many, and however big the flock may be, he

strike a boat full of goods, that boat-load pays no duty; for it is
thought unlucky that an arrow strike any ones property; and the Great
Kaan says it would be an abomination before God, were such property, that
has been struck by the divine wrath, to enter into his Treasury.[NOTE 1]]
