HAPPENED, AND NONE OF THE CHARACTERS CONTAINED IN THE NARRATIVE ARE BASED ON ANY PERSONS, LIVING OR DEAD, UNLESS EXPRESSLY STATED.

Beyond that last blue mountain barred with snow
Across that angry or that glimmering sea
From The Story of Hassan of Baghdad and How He Came to
Make the Golden Journey to Samarkand (1913)
JAMES ELROY FLECKER (1884-1915)
