     * unto his servants.

     * I will now.

     * They know that we be hungry.
       This was a very natural conclusion; and, in history of the
       revolt of Ali Bey, we have an account of a stratagem very
       similar to that supposed to have been practised by the
       Syrians.  The pasha of Damascus having approached the Sea of
       Tiberias, found sheik Daher encamped there; but the sheik,
       deferring the engagement till the next morning, during the
       night divided his army into three parts, and left the camp
       with great fires blazing, all sorts of provisions, and a large
       quantity of spiritous liquors.  In the middle of the night,
       the pasha, thinking to surprise the sheik, marched in silence
       to the camp, which, to his astonishment, he found entirely
       abandoned; and imagining the sheik had fled with so much
       precipitation that he could not carry off his baggage and
       stores, he stopped in the camp to refresh his soldiers.  They
       soon fell to plunder, and drank so freely of the spirits,
       that, overcome with its fumes, they sunk into a deep lethargy.
       At that time, two sheiks came silently to the camp, and being
       rejoined by Daher, rushed upon the sleeping foe, 8,000; of whom
       were slain; the pasha and a few soldiers barely escaping with
       their lives.
