                   most  of  all, to  the  townspeople  of  Urfa.  Wherever  my  inquiries  took  me—
                   in the  courtyards of the  whitewashed  mosques,  in the  markets, at the  coffee-
                   house by the  shady fish-pools, in the  orchards,  or on the  rough  slopes  of the
                   Citadel—I  met  with  hospitality that  asked  for  no reward. These are worthy
                   inhabitants of a great  city.
