"IN the eleventh year of the reign of Abd-ul-Hamid, son of Ahmid, emperor of the Turks; when the Nogais-Tartars were driven from the Crimea, and a Mussulman prince of the blood of Gengis-Kahn became the vassal and guard of a Christian woman and queen, I was travelling in the Ottoman dominions, and through those provinces which were anciently the kingdoms of Egypt and Syria."
