a large force marched to Xezwa. Finding on his arrival there
that Ibn-Mazrua was at Behla,—the governor of which at
that time was Muhammad-bin-Suleimfin, el-Yaaruby,—he
started thither. Jbn Mazrua's force at Behla consisted of
the el-'Obriyytn and the Benu-Shakil, who had been mus
tered by Muhammad-bin-Suleinmn when he heard that the
Seyyid Said was in esh-Sharkiyyah collecting an army, and
when Ibn-Mazrua came to him he advised him not to go to
el-Bediyyah, nor yet to any part of esh-Sharkiyyah, on that
account. While they were conversing on this topic, a mes
senger, one of the ed-Duruwwa, came to apprise them that

hammad-bin-Khalfan, and she wrote to the wife of Ahmed-
bin-Said-bin-el-Imam—who was then at er-Rastak—ap

a swift camel at sunrise and reached er-Rastak towards sun
set. When Kais's daughter read the letter she communi
cated its contents to her husband Ahmed, and they both
started for Sohar after sunset, Suleiman-el-'Adiwy and
some intimate friends accompanying them. The Seyyid
Said reached Sohar towards evening, whereas they did not
arrive till towards dawn the following day, utterly ignorant
then that he had anticipated them. On learning that he was
there and that he had taken possession of the fort, they
