so,when she heard the crier,she knew that it was he who was sought for and,going down to him,told him the news. Then he fared forth and made for the mansion of the Wazir,whom,when As'ad saw,exclaimed,'By Allah,this Minister is my brother Amjad!'Then he went up (and the damsel walking behind him) to the Palace,where he again saw his brother,and threw himself upon him;whereupon Amjad also knew him and fell upon his neck and they embraced each other,whilst the Wazir's Mamelukes dismounted and stood round them. They lay awhile insensible and,when they came to themselves,Amjad took his brother and carried him to the Sultan,to whom he related the whole story,and the Sultan charged him to plunder Bahram's house.And Shahrazad perceived the dawn of day and ceased saying her permitted say.
When it was the Two Hundred and Thirtyseventh Night,She said,It hath reached me,O auspicious King,that the Sultan ordered Amjad to plunder Bahram's house and to hang its owner. So Amjad despatched thither for that purpose a company of men,who sacked the house and took Bahram and brought his daughter to the Wazir by whom she was received with all honour,for As'ad had told his brother the torments he had suffered and the kindness she had done him. Thereupon Amjad related in his turn to As'ad all that had passed between himself and the damsel;and how he had escaped hanging and had become Wazir;and they made moan,each to other,of the anguish they had suffered for separation.
