To The Book Of The Thousand
And One Nights With Notes
Anthropological And
Explanatory

By
Richard F. Burton

VOLUME TWO
Privately Printed By The Burton Club



To Henry Irving, Esq.

My Dear Irving,

To a consummate artist like yourself I need hardly suggest
that The Nights still offers many a virgin mine to the
Playwright; and I inscribe this volume to you, not only in
admiration of your genius but in the hope that you will find
means of exploiting the hidden wealth which awaits only your
"Open Sesame!"

Every yours sincerely,
Richard F. Burton.

London, August 1, 1886.
