and expected from them, were indifferent Matters to them, now he
manifested a Genius for Glory; instead of Ridicule and Invective about
his Irregularities, War was all the Subject of Discourse, and every one
according to the Fertility of his Invention, laid magnificent Schemes to
raise their King to an unparallell'd Glory. This general Complacency and
Zeal were duly reported to the King, who was not wanting to encourage so
good a Disposition; prompted by the Importance of answering their
endearing Idea of him, and verifying their Wishes, he shewed himself
such as really he was, but hitherto restrained and seduced by his crafty
_Visier_. Yet amidst these mighty Affairs, he was not totally diverted
from Love; for it never was held to be incompatible with the Desire of
Glory, and he always allotted his Time so properly, that neither of
these Passions encroached upon the other. His Fondness for _Lenertoula_
did not slacken his Pursuit of Glory, it rather tended to animate and
increase it, she being exorbitantly ambitious, and esteeming her Lover's
Laurels her own; upon a Persuasion that her Grandeur would increase with
the King's Power; then her Pride could not bear the Thought that the
Queen of _Ghinoer_ and her Allies should prescribe Laws to a Prince,
whom she would have under no Controul but her own.

The Magazines being at last formed, the Plan for the Campaign
determined, and the Troops at the general Rendezvous, _Zeokinizul_ set
out for the Army, which was to act against the _Bapasis_. Never did a
saved People shew greater Marks of Gratitude to a brave Father of his
Country at his Return from a dangerous War, than were shewn by the
affectionate _Kofirans_ to _Zeokinizul_, wherever he came.
_Lenertoula's_ accompanying him to the Army, seemed not to be minded.
The King, the King, was the Cry, and they would see nothing but the
King.
