and Tohfah answered，'O my lady，I saw a damsel in the bath；having with her two little boys like moons，eye never espied her like，nor before her nor after her，neither is there the fellow of her form in the whole world nor her peer amongst Ajams or Turks or Arabs.By the munificence，O my lady，an thou toldest the Commander of the Faithful of her，he would slay her husband and take her from him，for her like is not to be found among women.I asked of her mate and they told me that he is a merchant Hasan of Bassorah hight.Moreover，I followed her from the bath to her own house and found it to be that of the Wazir；with the two gates，one opening on the river and the other on the land.[90]Indeed，O my lady，I fear lest the Prince of True Believers hear of her and break the law and slay her husband and take love-liesse with her.'--And Shahrazad perceived the dawn of day and ceased saying her permitted say.
When it was the Seven Hundred and Ninety-fifth Night； She continued，It hath reached me，O auspicious King，that when Tohfah，after seeing the King's daughter，described her beauty to the Lady Zubaydah ending with，'Indeed，O my mistress，I fear lest the Prince of True Believers hear of her and break the law and slay her mate and take her to wife，'Zubaydah cried，'Woe to thee，O Tohfah，say me，doth this damsel display such passing beauty and loveliness that the Commander of the Faithful should；on her account，barter his soul's good for his worldly lust and break the Holy Law！ By Allah，needs must I look on her，and if she be not as thou sayest，I will bid strike off thy head！ O strumpet，there are in the Caliph's Serraglio three hundred and three score slave girls，after the number of the days of the year，yet is there none amongst them so excellent as thou describest！'Tohfah replied，'No，by Allah，O my lady！： nor is there her like in all Baghdad；no，nor amongst the Arabs or the Daylamites nor hath Allah （to whom belong Might and Majesty！）
created the like of her！'Thereupon Zuhaydah called for Masrur；the eunuch，who came and kissed the ground before her，and she said to him，'O Masrur，go to the Wazir's house，that with the two gates，one giving on the water and the other on the land，and bring me the damsel who dwelleth there，also her two children and the old woman who is with her，and haste thou and tarry not.'
