[i]In mind the Somal are peculiar as in body. They are a people of most susceptible character, and withal uncommonly hard to
please. They dislike the Arabs, fear and abhor the Turks, have a horror of Franks, and despise all other Asiatics who with
them come under the general name of Hindi (Indians). The latter are abused on all occasions for cowardice, and a want of
generosity, which has given rise to the following piquant epigram:

"Ask not from the Hindi thy want:
Impossible that the Hindi can be generous!
Had there been one liberal man in El Hind,
Allah had raised up a prophet in El Hind!"[/i]

Not much has happened in 2oo years Smile
