Ah'med (Prince), noted for the tent given him by the fairy Pari-banou, which would cover a whole army, and yet would fold up so small that it might be carried in one's pocket. The same good fairy also gave him the apple of Samarcand', a panacea for all diseases.—Arabian Nights' Entertainments ("Prince Ahmed, etc.").

Aholiba'mah, granddaughter of Cain, and sister of Anah. She was loved by the seraph Samias'a, and like her sister was carried off to another planet when the Flood came.—Byron, Heaven and Earth.

Proud, imperious, and aspiring, she denies that

she worships the seraph, and declares that his

immortality can bestow no love more pure and

warm than her own, and she expresses a conviction

that there is a ray within her "which,

though forbidden yet to shine," is nevertheless

lighted at the same ethereal fire as his own.—Finden,

Byron Beauties
