ABSTRACT

Dáráb establishes himself upon the throne, defeats the Arabs and the Riimans, and marries the daughter of Failakús, the Csesar. Conceiving, however, a dislike for his spouse, he sends her back to her father, at whose court her child is born, named Sikandar, for the reason given in the story, and brought up by Failakús as his own son and heir. Dáráb meanwhile marries again, has another son—Dárá—falls into ill-health, appoints Dárá his successor, and dies.
