Oriental tales, for the entertainment of youth, The Story of Omar., sentence 22
His son Aububeker, who succeeded to the throne, was incensed against me, by some who regarded me at once with contempt and envy: he suddenly withdrew my pension, and commanded that I should be expelled the palace; a command which my enemies executed with so much rigour, that within twelve hours I found myself in the streets of Medina, indigent and friendless, exposed to hunger and derision, with all the habits of luxury, and all the sensibility of pride.
Who acts: son, Almalic, command, I, my · What happens: succeed, incense, regard, withdraw, command, expel · To what, where: son, me, pension, I, enemies, myself · Speech: someone speaks here
