### [356.1.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.356.1.8)

When this king was at the city of Isfahan, they told him there were many inhabitants who drank wine, and he issued a prohibition at once in accordance with the orders of the Quran. A few days after the issue of this order a Dutch ambassador arrived at the court to negotiate certain business \[191\], and he brought a handsome present for his Majesty. Among a number of other things were some birds, such as parrots, cockatoos, et cetera, which sang, talked, and whistled most cheerfully. It would be hard to express the amount of pleasure that his Majesty received from this gift.
