Re : Sultan Shahryar and Scheherazade

'So when my mistress shall be seen - in form and beauty of her mind, by virtue first, then choice - A Queen'

She is Scheherazade a beautiful piece of God creation, a Flower; 

'She had perused the books, annals and legends of preceding Kings, and the stories, examples and instances of bygone men and things.

She had collected a thousand books of histories relating to antique races and departed rulers. 

She had perused the works of the poets and knew them by heart. 

She had studied philosophy and the sciences, arts and accomplishments, 

and she was pleasant and polite, wise and witty, well read and well bred.'

- Wisdom

- Knowledge

- Beauty

- Kindness

'A tranquil of heaven, a true Gaia breed'

The story goes that every day - Sultan Shahryar of Persian kingdom would marry a new virgin, and every day he would send yesterday's wife to be beheaded, having found out that his first wife was unfaithful to him.

'When kings the sword of justice first lay down, they are no kings - though they possess the crown. Titles are shadows, crowns are empty things. The good of subjects is the end of kings, chaos, tyranny, and void of darkness it is.'

The Encounters;

Scheherazade volunteered to spend one night with the Sultan, thus makes her perhaps another feisty treats for the Sultan.

and so goes the first night came, the Sultan lay awake and listened with awe as Scheherazade told her first story. The night passed by, and Scheherazade stopped in the middle of the story. The Sultan asked her to finish, but Scheherazade said there was not time, as dawn was breaking. 

'Woman is a ray of the Divine light.'

So, the Sultan spared her life for one day to finish the story the next night. So the next night, Scheherazade finished the story, and then began a second, even more exciting tale which she again stopped halfway through, at dawn. So the Sultan again spared her life for one day to finish the second story.

And so the Sultan kept Scheherazade alive day by day, as he eagerly anticipated the finishing of last night's story. At the end of one thousand and one nights, and one thousand stories, Scheherazade told the Sultan that she had no more tales to tell him. 

'She whose realm dominion'

During these one thousand and one nights, the Sultan had fallen in love with Scheherazade. So, having been made a wiser and kinder man by Scheherazade and her tales, he spared her life, and made her his Queen.

'I will, as pearls on a string, be lifted in the hands of kings.'

have a blessed and wonderful sunday,
