13 2 The word sakir (magician) occurs both in the Tunis edition olAghani al-Hayat of
1955 and in the Beirut edition of his D'twan of 1972, but Kami's reading sakhir
(master of irony) which is followed in his book Al-Shabbi, Hayatuh wa Shfruh (Beirut,
1954, p. 214) is certainly more appropriate to the context. However, in Kami's later
book Athar al-Shabbi wa Sadahufi'l Sharq (Beirut, 1961, p. 90) the word strangely
enough appears again as sahtr.
