HARAII or Tura Mootn..—As the climate obliges the
ladies of the haram to wear only •ery light dresses,
there are some manufactured of silk, of so fine a texture,
that the whole dress does not weigh more than an ounce.
They repose in these dresses, which they change in the
morning, casting aside tie former as of no further use.
Every day they assume a dress of a different c3lour.
They are adorned besides with an immense quantity of
jewels: the collar of their robe is bordered with two
bands of diamonds, enchased its the centre of two rows
of pearls, crossing upon the stomach. Their ear-rings
and bracelets are of surprising beauty. Their fingers,
and also their toes, which are bare (the feet being
covered with sandals only), are ornamented equally
with the most beautiful rings. All the wives of the
Mogul, and all the Princesses his daughters, carry on
the thumb of the right hand,•in the form of a ring, a
small looking glass bordered with pearls. They cast
their eyes incessantly upon this mirror ; it is with them
the occupation of every moment. Their most becoming
ornament is a golden girdle of the breadth of two
fingers, enriched with jewels. Mantles of the same
metal are suspended to it, sewn with diamonds, whose
points are terminated by knots of pearls. What is very
surprising is, that each of these ladies has a change of
six or eight sets of these pearls.
