The explanation of this perennial quality of Arabic is to be found simply in the conserving role of nomadism. It is in towns that languages decay, by becoming worn out, the things and institutions they designate.

I have not come to seek place, nor to interfere with the business and calling of those men who have borne the burden since the death of Joseph.
