What does this part mean?
This is part of the Christmas Carol, stave 2.
And the Sultan's Groom turned upside down by the Genii; there he is upon his head. Serve him right. I'm glad of it. What business had he to be married to the Princess!'
I have no clue of what that part means. Is Sultan's Groom is a good guy or a bad character? Does 'turned upside down' mean the Groom stood on his head? And by 'What business....the Princess', Scrooge made a mockery of the marriage? Please help!
