520    Gossip was rife in the capital about the poetess of 
       Qazvin. Some claimed she had been arrested for 
       masterminding the murder of the grand Mullah, her uncle. 
       Others echoed her words, and passed her poems from hand to
       hand. Everyone spoke of her beauty, and her dazzling 
       intelligence. But most alarming to the Shah and the court 
       was how the poetess could read. As her warnings and 
       predictions became prophecies fulfilled, about the 
       assassination of the Shah, the hanging of the Mayor, and 
       the murder of the Grand Vazir, many wondered whether she 
       was not only reading history but writing it as well. Was 
       she herself guilty of the crimes she was foretelling?
