On Visiting the Market: To dance in the midst of the market-place is my desire
‘Dance!’ cried Sulaymán Khán. ‘In one hand the wine-cup, in one hand the tresses of the Friend. Such a dance in the midst of the market-place is my desire!’” (“A Traveller’s Narrative,” Note T, pp. 333–4.)
We were in Akka during several days of our Baha'i Pilgrimage. On one of those days we visited the marketplace, a fascinating experience.
Today while visiting Seattle's historic Pike Place Market, I thought of our experience in the winding alleyways of Akka. -gw
