Unluckily, Aladdin had gone a-hunting for eight days, which gave the magician plenty of time. He determined to get hold of the lamp, and again plunge Aladdin into the deepest poverty. "Forgive my ignorance," he asked, "what is the palace you speak of?" Have you not heard of Prince Aladdin's palace," was the reply, "the greatest wonder in the world? I will direct you if you have a mind to see it." The magician thanked him who spoke, and having seen the palace knew that it had been raised by the Genie of the Lamp, and became half mad with rage. As he passed through the town he heard people talking everywhere about a marvelous palace.
Hed the capital of China, bent on Aladdin's ruin.
