"Your hopes are ended," she cried.

"Not so, mother," answered Aladdin.

Then he rubbed the Magician's lamp. When the Genie appeared, Aladdin
told him to provide the forty golden basins filled with jewels, and the
eighty slaves.

When the procession reached the palace, the slaves presented the jewels
to the Sultan.

He was so delighted with the gift that he was willing to have Aladdin
marry the Princess without delay.

"Go and tell your son that he may wed my daughter this very day," he
said to Aladdin's mother.

Aladdin was delighted to hear the news. He ordered the Genie to bring a
rich purple robe for him to wear; a beautiful white horse to ride upon;
twenty slaves to attend him; six slaves to attend his mother; and ten
thousand gold pieces to give to the people.

At last everything was ready. Aladdin, dressed in his royal robe,
started for the palace. As he rode on the beautiful white horse, he
scattered the gold coins among the people. They shouted with joy as they
followed the procession.

At the palace the Sultan greeted Aladdin joyfully and ordered the
wedding feast to be prepared at once.
