like  me  began  to  spread。  Yet  before  the  advent  of  Islam;  two  of  the  twelve

months  of  the  year  were  “months  of  the  dog。”  Now;  however;  a  dog  is

considered a bad omen。 I don’t want to burden you with my own problems;

my dear friends who have e to hear a story and ponder its moral—to be

honest;  my  anger  arises  out  of  the  esteemed  cleric’s  attacks  upon  our

coffeehouses。

What would you think if I said that this Husret of Erzurum was of dubious

birth? But they’ve also said of me; “What kind of dog do you think you are?

You’re attacking the venerable cleric because your master is a picture…hanging

storyteller who tells tales at a coffeehouse and you want to protect him。 Go

on; scat!” God forbid; I’m not denigrating anyone。 But I’m a great admirer of

our coffeehouses。 You know; I have no problem with the fact that my portrait

was drawn on such cheap paper or that I’m a four…legged beast; but I do regret

that I can’t sit down like a man and have a cup of coffee with you。 We’d die

for our coffee and our coffeehouses—what’s this? See; my master is pouring

coffee  for  me  from  a  small  coffeepot。  A  picture  can’t  drink  coffee;  you  say?

Please! See for yourselves; this dog is happily lapping away。

Ah;  yes;  that  hit  the  spot;  it’s  warmed  me  up;  sharpened  my  sight  and

Chinese  silks  and  Chinese  pottery  adorned  with  blue  flowers;  what  did  the

Veian  Doge  send  to  Nurhayat  Sultan;  the  esteemed  daughter  of  our

respected Sultan? A soft and cuddly Veian she…dog with a coat of silk and

sable。 I heard that this bitch is so spoiled she has a red silk dress as well。 One of

our friends actually fucked her; that’s how I know; and she can’t even engage

in the act without her dress。 In that Frankish land of hers; all dogs wear outfits

like  that  anyway。  I’ve  heard  tell  that  over  there  a  so…called  elegant  and  well…

bred Veian woman saw a naked dog—or maybe she saw its thing; I’m not

sure—anyway;  she  screamed;  “My  dear  God;  the  dog  is  naked!”  and  fainted

dead away。

In the lands of the infidel Franks; the so…called Europeans; every dog has an

owner。 These poor animals are paraded on the streets with chains around their

necks; they’re fettered like the most miserable of slaves and dragged around in

isolation。 These Franks force the poor beasts into their homes and even into

their beds。 Dogs aren’t permitted to walk with one another; let alone sniff and

frolic together。 In that despicable state; in chains; they can do nothing but gaze

forlornly at each other from a distance when they pass on t
