THE THREE BEGGARS

In the city of BaSdad there
lived two sisters, noted for their
beauty and their kindheartedness
One evening, as they sat at supper
there came a knock at the porta
and the maid led in three beg
CARS, clad in leather. Each OF
them had shaved his head, his eye.
brows and his lashes, and each
had lost his right eye. Each was
young and each was very hand
some. They were given a bounti-
full supper, and then, in accord
ance with the city's regular GUS
toms, they were asked to relate
the stories of their lives. Without
hesitation one of the three began
his tale.
My father was the king of a far
country. he said, and l the heir to
the crown. One day, when | came
home from visit, | was met at
the palace gate by an armed
guard, at whose head was my
fathers grand yizier. Prince,
he said, your father is dead and
l have been made sultan in his
place. You are my prisoner"
When l was a very little boy
playing with the vizier's son, with
a bow and arrow, l had accident
ally put out one of his eyes. My
father gave the vizier a large sum
of money, and the vizier seemed
to be content. But now the vi

the dungeon, helpless and in
chains, thrust his finger into my

commanded that l be beheaded
but l pleaded so hard with the
jailer, who had been one of my
fathers most faithful followers
that he finally let me go alive
