[16] Man being an'extract of despicable water'（Koran xxxii.7） ex spermate genital），which Mr. Rodwell renders'from germs of life，''from sorry water.'
[17] i.e. begotten by man's seed in the light of salvation （Nur alhuda）.
[18] The rolls of white （camphorlike） scarfskin and sordes which come off under the bathman's glove become by miracle of Beauty，as brown musk. The Rubber or Shampooer is called in Egypt'Mukayyis'（vulgarly'Mukayyisati'） or'bagman，'from his'Kis，'a bagglove of coarse woollen stuff. To'Johnny Raws'he never fails to show the little rolls which come off the body and prove to them how unclean they are，but the material is mostly dead scarfskin .

[21] Jannat alNa'im （Garden of Delight）；the fifth of the seven Paradises made of white diamond；the gardens and the plurality being borrowed from the Talmud. Mohammed's Paradise，by the by，is not a greater failure than Dante's. Only ignorance or pious fraud asserts it to be wholly sensual；and a single verse is sufficient refutation：'Their prayer therein shall be'Praise unto thee，O. Allah！' and their salutation therein shall be'Peace！' and the end of their prayer shall be，'Praise unto God，the Lord of all creatures'' （Koran x. 1011）. See also lvi. 2426. It will also be an intellectual condition wherein knowledge will greatly be increased （lxxxviii viii. 1720）. Moreover the Moslems，far more logical than Christians，admit into Paradise the socalled'lower animals.'
