An Eastern Comedy in One Act, by GEORGE CALDERON
On a hilltop outside an Arabian city there sits at the entrance to his hut one Hafiz, smoking a hookah. In peaceful contemplation he regards the white roof-tops which lie shimmering below. Life in > the East is never hurried, and towards the close of one's days it becomes even more tranquil and philosophical. A Figure leaning on a staff, and carrying a bunch of roses, approaches. It is friend Hariri.
