Well, sirs, 'tis Et-Try, and he is the son

Of one Et-Germezlyya. Never has

He thought of doing well, he lives for crime.

The shrewd "Merkanty" made a profit on them.

Et-Try served them as an interpreter.

The Christian ought to make them this year gain

A thousand d'oros. But I pray to God

To send those two men to the fires of hell.

Now Aly Et-Try is their manager;

He runs about all day, with naught achieved.
