Official correspondence in Morocco Is couched in a very flowery and fam boyant style. It is interspersed with a variety of meaningless adulatory phrases that tend to confound the real meaning of the epistle. For example an order to the minister of finance to contract loan begins thus:
 Tn our present letter God increase his power and make the glorious sun and his moon glitter in the Armament of his felicity we have authorized our incorruptible servant (here follows name) to contract in the name and on the behoof of the treasury (heaven i'll ltl loan of --.'' etc,
