When the prince drew back the reins of his mount, the slave-girl entered the ruin, and said softly to the ghouls who had their dwelling and abode in that place: "I have come, and I have brought a prince; I know that his flesh and fat are exceedingly tender and clean, and his parts and limbs will be vastly delicious and delicate." The ghouls who were in that place praised her and said: "Welcome to you and to what you have done! Go out in haste, and reassure him so that he does not flee, and take away his weapons so that he cannot fight with us!" - [Previous: 260.1](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama~en-mt.260.1) - [Next: 261.8](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama~en-mt.261.8) - [Up: 261](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama~en-mt.261) ## Linked texts (1) - [سندبادنامه](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama.261.1) — Ẓahīrī Samarqandī, Persian --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama~en-mt.261.1](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama~en-mt.261.1) · Pramāṇa
