A Dream of the East and the Grotesque Arizona Cactus
A vivid account describes an East Indian Fire Worshiper entertainment at Sir Framgee Denishaw Petit’s palace with ornate costumes, jewels, flowers, and a royal dining spectacle. It contrasts refined Parsees with Western guests and recalls Haroun al Rashid. The piece also extols Arizona’s grotesque cactus, detailing its leafless stock, venomous spines, varied blooms, edible fruit, drought endurance, and hardiness across climates.
