Twelve beautiful Tartar girls

The khan of the Tartars has lately had an audience of the grand signior at Constantinople, when the sultan caused him to sit at the grand visier's right hand, immediately under the royal throne. The
khan presented the grand signior with twelve beautiful Tartar girls, and in return, received six Arabian horses, richly caparisoned. The motive of his journey is not known.
