His tunic or under-garment is purple and white, his trousers are bright crimson, his shoes are yellow, and have long pointed toes.

On his head is a curious high cap with a band of blue spotted with white.

He is moreover covered with ornaments: he has gold earrings, a gold chain, gold bracelets, and a long golden sceptre with a golden ball as its crown.
The king is sitting on a throne, in shape like a high-backed chair with a footstool before it.

The chair stands on lion's feet, and the stool on bull's feet, and both are made of gold.
By the king's side sits the queen; her name was Damaspia, but we know little more of her in history, except that she died on the same day as her husband.

Behind the king and queen are the fan-bearers, and fly-flappers, and parasol-bearers, who are in constant attendance on their royal majesties, and around are the great officers of the household.
Fifteen thousand people ate the king's food in that palace every day, but the king always dined alone.
