According to Jewish and Mohame-
dan tradition, King Solomon, who
was wise beyond all other neil, knew
the language of animals, and could
talk with the beasts of the field and
the birds OF the air. A Rabbinieal
story is told OF him, which is in this
wise:
lone day the king rode out of Jeru-
salem with q great retinue. An ant
hill lay directly in his path, and Sol
ONION heard its little people talking.
- Here comes the great king he
heard q Of them say. His fiatter-
ers call him wise, and just, and merei-
full, but he Is about to ride over US
and crush us without needing oar
sufferings,'
And Solomon told the Queen OF
Sheba, who rode with him, what the
ant said.
And the Queen made answer.
He is an ~insolent creature, o king +!
II is a better fate than he deserves, TO
be trOdden under our feet,
but Solomon said: 1t is part OF
wisdom TO learn Of The lowest and
weakest And he commanded his
train TO turn aside and spare the ant.
hill.
Then all the courtiers marvelled
greatly, and the Queen ofSheba bow
ed obeisanee to solomon.
Now know 1 the secret of thy
wisdom. TkSu listenest as patiently
to the reproaehes Of the humble as to
