As Prince Ahmed had obtained the Fairy Paribanou’s leave to go to the Sultan of the Indies’ Court once a month, he never failed, and the magician, knowing the time, went a day or two before to the foot of the rock where she lost sight of the Prince and his attendants, and waited there.

Who acts: Ahmed, leave · What happens: obtain, go, not fail, know, lose, wait · To what, where: Prince Ahmed, Sultan, magician, foot, sight, Prince
