Kassem, a youth of sixteen, is burning to go out and avenge his cousin.

The Icernas sound, and Kassem, after a solemn appeal from Hussein and his sister Zeyneb to God and to the founders of their house to look upon their great dis- tress, rises and speaks ...to himself : Kassem. — "Separate thyself from the women of the harem, Kassem. Consider within thyself for a little ; here thou sittest, and presently thou wilt see the body of Hussein, that body like a flower, torn by arrows and lances like thorns, Kassem.
" Thou sawest Ali-Akber's head severed from his body on the field of battle, and yet thou livedst !
" Arise, obey that which is written of thee by thy father ; to be slain, that is thy lot, Kassem !
