Four millstones formed his shield , and on a box-tree close by hung his giant sword . His loin-cloth was fashioned of twelve skins of beasts , and was bound round his waist by a chain of which each link was as big as an elephant 's thigh . The prince approached and tied up his horse near the negro 's head . Then he let fall the Bismillah from his lips , entered the garden and walked through it till he came to the private part , delighting in the great trees , the lovely verdure , and the flowery borders . In the inner garden there were very many deer . These signed to him with eye and foot to go back , for that this was enchanted ground ; but he did not understand them , and thought their pretty gestures were a welcome . After a while he reached a palace which had a porch more splendid than Caesar 's , and was built of gold and silver bricks . In its midst was a high seat , overlaid with fine carpets , and into it opened eight doors , each having opposite to it a marble basin .

He salaamed ; she rose , took him by the hand and placed him near her . ' O young man ! who are you ? Where do you come from ? How did you get into this garden ? ' He told her his story from beginning to end , and Lady Latifa -LSB- 9 -RSB- replied : ` This is folly !
