description: An engraving depicting a scene from the sixth book of the epic poem, Saint Louys, in which Sultan Mélédin (left), who had been preparing to sacrifice his daughter, Zahide (left, kneeling), watches as his son, Prince Muratan (center), stabs himself so that he can be sacrificed in his sister's place. The ene takes place on an altar beside the Nile river, where the Sultan and his children are joined by Mirème, the sorcerer, and a young woman holding a plate (possibly Almasonte, who later saves Zahide when she and her brother fall in the river).
