" all his petulant rage upon
49, feslingiess waves and dis
tant Christians. He sum
moned 10 his presence the admiral Of
his defeated feet. Baltaoghh. and or
dsrsd that he should be impalsd.
The admiral had shown a. much ma
val skill a. could perhaps have been
exhibited with the unw,oldy boats ut
his command and. moreover. had
brought from the fight an eye,css SOCK
OF to attest his bravery and devotion.
The penalty. therefore. which Mnbomet
attached to his misfortune brought
cries Of entreaty in his behalf from
other brave ofiiceS. especially from
the leading janizaries. THIS opposition
at first confirmed the determination Of
the irnte despot. But soon the petition
Of the honored corps swelled into u
murmur. which the more experienced
Of his advisers persuaded Mnhomet TO

promise with those whom he feared to
offend, and commuted the admirai's
sentence to fiogginx.

the ground by four slaves. Turning to
Captain Ballaban, the sultan babe him
lay on the lash. Bsllaban hesitated.

spectfully, but firmly:
'"The janizaries are soldiers, not exc
cutioners, sire"
Mahomet's rage burst as suddenly

I'VE will find the executloner for him,
too, who dares to dlsobey our orders"
Selling his golden mace, the sultan
himself beat the PROSTATE form Of the
admiral until 1t was se$sseless.
