[Footnote 162: Sibi robur ad generationem, quantum triginta
viri habent, inesse jacteret: ita ut unica hora posset
undecim foeminis satisfacere, ut ex Arabum libris refert
Stus. Petrus Paschasius, c. 2., (Maracci, Prodromus
Alcoran, p. iv. p. 55. See likewise Observations de Belon,
l. iii. c. 10, fol. 179, recto.) Al Jannabi (Gagnier, tom.
iii. p. 287) records his own testimony, that he surpassed
all men in conjugal vigor; and Abulfeda mentions the
exclamation of Ali, who washed the body after his death, "O
propheta, certe penis tuus coelum versus erectus est," in
Vit. Mohammed, p. 140.]
