r ! A PERSIAN STORY
I
ttn Sit John flfalcojm's most agree jible and
Jnatrtietive Ske tches of Persia we nieet the
i
following highly amusing story, which, Sir
John says,' was related to him by his frenJ Ha
jee Hoosein at a dreary spot in. Persia, named
the Valley of the Anger of Death.1 rA f j"
! The Ilajee informed his' 'companion that
this ' was one of the most favonrite terrestrial
abodes or'Azcael, (the; Angel of Death,) and
that'Jiere he was surrounded by Ghodls; who
aire a species of monsters that feed on! the car
cases of 'all the beings which he deprives of
life. "The Ghbols,1 he added, "are;of a hid
ebus form, but 4hey can assume any, shape
they please, in order to lure men to their des
truction : they can alter theiroices j for - the
same Jaudable -purpose:" TheHfrightful
screams and yells' said the Hajee,
f wnicn
ravines.
are olten nearU amid tnese ureaaea
aire changed for the softest and most melodious
notes : unwary travellers, deluded, by tne ap
,pearance of friends, or captivated by the forms
and charmed by the music of their demons, are
allured from their path, and after feasting for
a few hours on every luxury, are consigned to.
. .destruction." rjy s ' -i; i i-i 1
) In conclusion, said the Hajee, 4 These crea
rtures are the very lowest of the super-natural
' world; and besides, being timid, are extremely
stupid, and consequently often imposed upon
. by artful men.' I will recount you a story that
-is well authenticated, to prove that what I say
j - AMEEN OF ISFAHAN AND THE GIIOOL. ,
: You know," said he, that the natives of
the Isfahan, though not: brave, are the most
i crafty - and acute people upon the earthy and
often supply the want of courage by their ad
' dress. An inhabitant of that city was once
compelled to travel alone and at night through
this dreadful valley, He was a man of ready
wit and fond of adventures, and though no lion,
had great confidence jn his cunning, which had
brought ' him through a hundred scrapes and
. perils, that would have embarrassed 1 or des
' trowed your simple man of Valour iij-f ;
" This, man, whose name was Ameen: Beg,
had heard many stories of Ghools of the Val
ley of the Angel of Death, and thought it
likely he might meet one : he prepared, accor
dingly, by putting an egg and a lump pi salt in
his pocket. He had not gone far -amid the
rocks we; have just passed, when he heard a
voice crying, Holloa, Ameen. Beg Isfahanee !
you are going the wrong road ; you Jwill lose
yourself : come this way : I am your friend
Iteirem Beg : I know your father, old, Kerbela
Betr. and the. street in ; which you were born.'
Ameen knew well the power the Ghools had of
assuming ihf shape tf any person they choose ;
an4 .he. aU knew their skill ks gen? alb'gists,'
and their khoivledgC of towns as well as fami
lies ;. he hadittherefore, little doubt that.this was
one of thesel creatures alluring him to1 destruc
tion. He, however determined to encounter
him, and trtist'tb his art for his escape
i Stop' my friend; till I come near you,
was his reply. When Ameen came cloose to
the Ghool, he said,jV You are not my , friend
Kerrem, you area lying demon ; hut you are
just the beinjr I desire td meet. I have tried
my strength against all men and all the beasts
which exist. in the natural world, and l can nna
nothing that is a match for me...' I came there
fore to this valley, in -the hope of encountering
a Ghool that I might proe my prowess upon
him.
, The Ghool astonished ! at being a
idcffesled
in this manner, looked keenly at him, and said
Son of Adam, vou do not appear so strong
' Appearances are deceitful replied Ameen :'
but I will give you prootof my jstrengtr..
There, sakl he, picking up a stone from a rivu
let this1 contains a: fluid ; try if you can so
squeeze it that it will flow ont,VThe Ghool,
took the stone, but after a short attempt return
ed C it, sa'ing, ' The thing -is impossible.
Quite easy, said the Isfanhee, taking the stone
arid placing it in the hand in which he had be
fore put the egg 1 4 Jobk there ! : and the aston
ished Ghool, while he heard what he took for
the breaking of the stone, saw. the liquid run
frojin between Ameens fingers, and thb, appa
rently without any efforUVj V ; i f
j " Ameen, aided by; the darkness, placed the
tone tipoa the ground while-he picked up
nother of a darker hue. 4 This,' said, he, I
i cari see, contains salt, as you will find if you
1 can : crumble it between your'fingefs.?' Bot
the Ghool, looking at it, confessed he had nei-

nor
strength to" ; break it. Give if
me; saiq
his
companion impatiently ; and, having put it in
to tne same band, with the piece of salt, he in
stantly gave the latter,- all .crushed to-the
Crhool, who, seeing it reduced to powder tab
led it, and remained in stupid . astonishment at
the skill and strength of this wonderful . man.
Neither was he without alarm lest his strength
should be' exerted against himself : and he saw
bo Bafety in resorting to the shape of a beast,
fnr Ameen had warned him thai if he commen
ced any such unfair dealing he would instantly
alav him : for Ghools, ttrouffh long-irrea, are
not immortal, I '- ' " '.'i t '
!Mosi wonderful man 1 said he; ' will you
honour my abode jvith your presencem is
quite; &! ' hand : there you will find every re
freshment; and, after a comfortable night s rest
you can resume your journey. 'z .1 ? I & V
" I have no objectien, friend Ghool, to ac
cept ybur bffer: but mark me-1 amr in ,the
first pUce; very, passionate, and must' not be
provKea oy any expressions wnicn are in ine
least; disrespectful ; and, in the second, T ata
full : of penetration;-and can: see thjmugh.yoiuf
designs as clearly; as I saw into thai' hard stone;
in which I discovered salt: sotake! care you
entertain hone that are wicked Or ybti shall suf-
" The jGhool declared that the : ear ofJ hU
guest' should be pained by no expression 4 to
which it; did not befit hit dignity to listen : and
ae swore py tne head of his liege lord, the An
gel of Death, that he would faitfuliy.rcspeci
the right of hospitality and fneshipl
Thus jatisfiedi Ameen followed the Ghool
through a number of crooked paths, rugged
cliffs, and deep ravines, till they came to ajarge
cave, which was dimly lighted. Here,' taid
the Ghool, I dwB;' and here . Imy friend will
find all he can want for refreshment tnil re
pose.' So saying, he led him to various apart
ments, in which was hoarded every species of
grain, and all kind of merchandise, plundered
from travellers who hid been deluded to this
den, of whose fate'Ameen was too well .'irifor
rried by the bones over which he how ind then
stumbled, and by the putrid smell produced by
some half-consumed carcases. S - . - . ;
If1 This will be sufficient for your Supper; I
hope, said the Ghoblr taking up a great bag"of
ricei a man'ot your prowess must hive a tol?
erab le appetitef. , True.' said Am een bu 1 1 ale
a sheep, and as much rice as you have therei
before I proceeded on my journey. I am, con
sequently not hungry ; . but I will take a little
lest I offend your hospitality. I must boil it
tor you, said the demon j you do not eat
grain fand meat raw as we do. Here is a ket
tle, "said he taking tip one lying amongst the
plundered property : i I i will go itnd get
wood j for a fire while1 you fetch water with
that,' pointing to a bag. made of the side of six
OXeni' -,V . i j '4: -X;-
: ' Ameen waited till he saw his host leave
the cave for the wood; and then, with great dif
ficulty, he dragged the enormous bag to the
b4nk of a dark stream which isued from the
rocks at the other end of the cavern, and after
being visible for a few yards, disappeared un
der ground. J i'r-; 1 i , . .
- How shall.I, thought Ameen, prevent my
weakness being discovered ; Tins bag I could
hardly manage when empty ;' when iull it
would require twenty strong men to carry it i
lyhat shall 1 do? I shall be eateii op by this
Cannibal Ghool, who is ribw only kept in carder
by the impression of ray great strength.' After
some minutes reflection, the Isfanhee thought
of a scheme, and began digging a small chan
nel from the stream towards the place where
the supper was preparing. j : j i v - - ,
: What are y bu doing V vociferated "the
Ghool, as he advanced towards him; 1 sent
you for water to boil a little rice, and ybuhave
been an hour about it. Cannot you fill the bag
and bring it away ? Certainly I can. said
Ameen : if I were content to show my gra
titude merely by feats of. brute strength, I
could lift your stream, if you; had a bag large
enough to hold it ; but here,; said he,-pointing
tb the channel he had begun, 'here is the com
mencement of a work in which the mind of man
i$ empioyea to lessen tne jaoour oi tne Doay.
This canal, small as it inay appear, will carry
a stream to the other end of the cave,in( which
I; will construct a dam that you cart bperi a'nid
shfit al tour pleasure and thereby save your
self infinite trouble in fetching water ; but pray
lei me alone till it is ; .fihisbed-rand he bejfan

the bag and filhngitj I will carry the water
myself; and I advise you to leave off your ca-.
nal, as you call it, and follow me, that you
may eat your supper and go to sleep ; you may

I ! Ameen congraulated himself on' this ' es
cape, and was not slow in tikihg the advice of
his hiostJ After fiaviflfg taten heartily of the
supper that was. prepared, he went to repose
n a' bed ift.ade of the richest coverlets and pil

AiTeens bed, where not observing the - least
stir, he was satified his truest was in a deep
sleep; so he took up one of his walking-sticks,'
which was in size like the trunk ot a tree, and
struck' a terrible blow at what he supposed to
be Ameens head. He sniiled, not to hear a
roan, thinking he had ' deprived him of life ;
ut to make sure of his" work, he repeated the
blow seven times. He then returned to rest,
but had hardly settled himself to sleep, when
Ameen, who had crept into bed, raised his head
above, the t; clothes and $ exclaimed, Friend
GhooIr what insect could it be that has disturbed
me by its tapping t I counted the flap of its
little wing seven times on the coverlet. These
vermin are very annoying, for though 'they
cannot hurt a man -they disturb his rest ! .t
