The fate of Phrosine, the fairest of this sacrifice, is the subject of many a Romaic and Arnaout ditty. The story in the text is one told of a young Venetian many years ago, and now nearly forgotten. I heard it by accident recited by one of the coffeehouse story-tellers who abound in the Levant, and sing or recite their narratives. The additions and interpolations by the translator will be easily distinguished from the rest by the want of Eastern imagery; and I regret that my memory has retained so few fragments of the original. For the contents of some of the notes I am indebted partly to Dl-lerbelot, and partly to that most eastem, and, as Mr. Weber justly entitles it, sublime tale, the Caliph Vathek. I do not know from what source the author of that singular volume may have drawn his materials; some of his incidents are to be found in the Bibliothquc Oricutal. . .
