Count O’Kelly’s little work gives some curious details of Mouley Hasan’s visit to Brussels in 1534, as a suppliant for Charles’ aid, and in 1550-53, when he was an exile and had been deprived of sight and blinded by his own children. The kindness of the Emperor to his unfortunate ally affords eloquent testimony to his really noble nature. He refused to allow Mouley Hasan to do him homage, and in the forest of Soignes made him sit at table with six crowned heads.] [Footnote 23: Appendix E.] [Footnote 24: Annales Tunisiennes, p. 103.] [Footnote 25: Appendix F.] [Footnote 26: Pellissier.
