The #Nabataeans are a sensible people, and are so much inclined to acquire #possessions that they publicly fine anyone who has diminished his possessions and also confer honours on anyone who has increased them. Since they have but few #slaves, they are served by their kinsfolk for the most part, or by one another, or by themselves; so that the custom extends even to their #kings.
