“But how miſerable ſo ere it ſeemes to others, the Perſian King makes many happy harveſts; filling every yeere his inſatiate coffers with above three hundred and fifty ſeven thouſand Tomans (a Toman is five markes ſterlin,) in our money, 1190000 pound ſterlin: a great revenue, the more to be admired at, ſince he extracts it from raw ſilke, cuſtoms and cotton; not thinking any way meane or diſhonourable that brings in money. So thought Abbas; and thence deriv’d that unkinkly trade of ſending into the market, his dayly preſents of fruits and flowers (for without ſome piſcaſh was no ſaluting him;) a kind of thrift, he not only boaſted of (I imagin as Ageſilaus did of his polt-foot) but ſeemed to complain of the too great nicity of other Kings.”
