wise man replied. Ten" The king
became very respondent and betook

and in the kings presence asked him.
"How many years have you to liveY'
He replied. Twenty" The vizier or
dered that he should that very hour be

king was satisfied and commended the
sagacity of his minister and no longer
attached any Importance to the astrol-
