Nth-generation tale, probably with details mangled: Hussein al Qomi
was once asked (for purposes of the heraldic alternate titles list),
"What is a Persian title appropriate for someone who has reigned once
but is no longer reigning?". He replied, "'The Late', or if he is
particularly lucky, 'the Blinded and Castrated'.".
