The Read from Aleppo to Ifpahan through the/mail Defert 7 and
through Kengavar.

Will defenbe this R oad as if I were to return from Ijpahari to Aleppo. This
Road lies through Kengavar^ Bagdat, Anna, where you enter into the
EMert, which I call the little Dsfart, becaufe you get over it in far lefs time
than the great Defert that extends Southwards to Arabia the Happy, and where
you may often find Water, all the whole Journey being not far diftant from the River
Euphrates. A man that is well mounted may ride this way from Ijpahan to Aleppoin
three and thirty day, as I have done, and perhaps in lefs, if the Arabian, whom
you take for your guide at Bagdat, knows the fhorteft cut through the Wildef-
The Horfe Caravans travelling from Ijpahan to Kengaver are fourteen or fifteen
days upon the Road i but being well mounted ten or twelve in a Company, you may
Ride it in five or fix days. The Country through which you travel, is very
fertile in Corn and Rice, it produces alfo excellent Fruits and good Wine, efpeci-
ally about Kengavar > which is a large Town well peopl’d. • '
From Kengavar to Bagdat I was ten days upon the Road. The Country is not fo
fertile but very ftony in fome parts. And it confifts in Plains and fmali Bills there
being not a Mountain in all the Road. *
Now for a man that travels quick, the Road lies thus:
From Ijpahan to Confar.
From Confar to Comba. \ " liR f T
