The king of Ophir's eldest son, Al-Kabal wins Canace for his wife; thus an impending war with Ophir is avoided, and Cam- buscan gains a faithful ally. Russia is given her inde- pendence, and Algarsife marries Theodora, a princess of Russia. The Falcon's love-pain is appeased by the return of her, lover, who is no other than Cambalo; the falcon takes her human shape again and, as Zelica, is married to Cambalo. Wharton has spun out the story to 5043 verses : the first book of 653, the second of 6...90, the third of 712, the fourth of 972, the fifth of 994, and the sixth of 1022 verses. In his advertisement he says : There is something so presumptuous in undertaking to complete a story, left un- finished by a Poet of Chaucer's eminence, that the public has a right to some apology from me for the attempt itself, as well as to some account of the objects which were considered as principally to be kept in view in the construction of the fable as it now stands. With respect to the first point, I feaa: I can make no good defence; but I must throw myself on the Reader's mercy.
