There Is an Arab tradition cited In Burton's; "Gold Mines of Midian" re­ garding the creation of the camel which illustrates the popular but erro­ neous opinion that this animal is ugly in form and temper. The story goes that when Allah de­ termined to create the horse he called the south wind and said, "I desire to draw from thee a new being; condense thyself by parting with thy fluidity." The Creator then took a handful of this element, blew upon it the breath of ife and the noble quadruped appeared. But the horse complained against his Maker. His neck was too short to reach the distant grass blades on the march: his back had no hump to steady a saddle; his hoofs' were sharp and sank deep Into the sand, and he added many similar grievances. Whereupon Allah created the camel to prove the foolishness of his com­ plaint The horse shuddered at' the sight of what he wanted to become, and this is the reason that every horse starts when meeting .its caricature for the first time.
