Rasselas, Prince of Abyssinia, by Samuel Johnson
An 1889 book that has been translated to many languages:
የራስሤላስ መስፍነ ኢትዮጵያ ታሪክ ( ትርጉም) |
Rasselas was the fourth son of the mighty Emperor in whose
dominions the father of waters begins
his course--whose bounty
pours down the streams of plenty, and
scatters over the world the
harvests of Egypt.
According to the custom which has
descended from age to age among
the monarchs of the torrid zone,
Rasselas was confined in a private
palace, with the other sons and
daughters of Abyssinian royalty,
till the order of succession should
call him to the throne.
