So they sat at breakfast till it was dinner-time , and Aladdin told his mother about the lamp . She begged him to sell it , and have nothing to do with devils . `` No , '' said Aladdin , `` since chance hath made us aware of its virtues , we will use it , and the ring likewise , which I shall always wear on my finger . '' When they had eaten all the genie had brought , Aladdin sold one of the silver plates , and so on until none were left . He then had recourse to the genie , who gave him another set of plates , and thus they lived for many years . One day Aladdin heard an order from the Sultan proclaimed that everyone was to stay at home and close his shutters while the Princess , his daughter , went to and from the bath . Aladdin was seized by a desire to see her face , which was very difficult , as she always went veiled . He hid himself behind the door of the bath , and peeped through a chink . The Princess lifted her veil as she went in , and looked so beautiful that Aladdin fell in love with her at first sight . He went home so changed that his mother was frightened . He told her he loved the Princess so deeply that he could not live without her , and meant to ask her in marriage of her father . His mother , on hearing this , burst out laughing , but Aladdin at last prevailed upon her to go before the Sultan and carry his request . She fetched a napkin and laid in it the magic fruits from the enchanted garden , which sparkled and shone like the most beautiful jewels . She took these with her to please the Sultan , and set out , trusting in the lamp . The Grand Vizier and the lords of council had just gone in as she entered the hall and placed herself in front of the Sultan . He , however , took no notice of her . She went every day for a week , and stood in the same place . When the council broke up on the sixth day the Sultan said to his Vizier : `` I see a certain woman in the audience-chamber every day carrying something in a napkin . Call her next time , that I may find out what she wants . '' Next day , at a sign from the Vizier , she went up to the foot of the throne and remained kneeling till the Sultan said to her : `` Rise , good woman , and tell me what you want . ''
She hesitated , so the Sultan sent away all but the XXXXX , and bade her speak frankly , promising to forgive her beforehand for anything she might say .
