Excerpt: ...the side of the brave Merolboth, once more went thrilling through his nerves, he dropped his hand upon its hilt, and compressed his muscles for a final effort. He knew every avenue of the palace, and every turn was as familiar as were the walks of his own garden. Two of the eunuchs walked by his side, one with his hand upon each shoulder, while the other two walked close behind. At length, Al-Bassa reached the long passage that led from the divan to the rear of the palace, and the moment that his feet touched its marble pavement he knew that the time for his trial had come. His steps grew slow and weak, his head dropped in apparent anguish, and deep sobs escaped from his bosom. Fainter and still fainter grew the old man's steps, until he seemed about to fall from the weakness that overcame him. The eunuchs who were behind came up to his assistance, and together the four essayed to help him along.

Very good for the age. The covers are bright and nice. Slightly bumped corners. The pages toned but clean. Note there is a little chipping on pages ends when closed lower mid section. Does no harm.
