The monarch was struck with her beauty, and, on inquiring of the captain of the troop, found that she was the daughter of the alcayde of a frontier fortress, that had been surprised and sacked in the course of the foray. Mohamed claimed her as his royal ^^^_^^^^^^ _ _ share of the booty, and I^BR^^^^^ ^^^ had her conveyed to his ^^j^^^J^ ^^^L \ harem in the Alhambra.
^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^m There everything was w ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^k. devised to soothe her melancholy ; and the monarch, more and more ena
...moured, sought to make her his queen.
The Spanish maid at first repulsed his addresses : he was an infidel ; he was the open foe of her country ; what was worse, he was stricken in years !
The monarch, finding his assiduities of no avail, determined to enlist in his favour the duenna^ who had been captured with the lady. She was an Andalusian by birth, whose Christian name is forgotten, being mentioned in Moorish legends by no other appellation than that of the discreet Kadiga ; and discreet in truth she was, as her whole history makes evident.
