154 THE LAUGHABLK STORIES OF BAR-HEBRÛS. DCXIII. Another nobleman was a silly man, and once when he was travelling along the road in company with some other folk, he said to them, "Leave "me for a short time, for I want to say a few words "to myself." DCXIV. Whilst another simpleton was saying his prayers in the church he heard the priests saying in their prayers, "Adam sinned, but Christ was crucified "to redeem him;" and he said, "This is not justice, for "he that committed the sin should be the one to be "crucified." DCXV. When another silly man was cracking an almond the kernel slipped away out of his hands, and he said, "Glory be to Thee, O God, for even the "kernel of the almond trieth to escape death." DCXVI. Another fool stood on the sea-shore and said, "Glory be to Him that created the sea out of "dry wood." DCXVII. The son of another simpleton shewed him a young dove, and said, "Look, father, which doth it "resemble, its father or its mother?" His father said to him, "Which is its father or mother? This male "or this female?" DCXVIII. Another simpleton said, "I love the dis- "courses of Mar Jacob' very much indeed, so much so "that I am blessed by him every day." His companion said to him, "But why art thou not blessed by the "Holy Gospel?" and he replied, "The Gospel is good, "but I have found by experience that Mar Jacob help- "eth me." DCXIX. Another fool went into a new house and ' I.e., Jacob of Edessa; he was born about A.D. 640 and died Sth of June A.D. 708.
STORIES OF CLOWNS AND SIMPLETONS. I 55 was walking round about in it when the owner thereof said, "What sayest thou; have I built well [or not]?" He said, "Everything is beautiful in it except the "latrine, which hath one fault: its door is so narrow "that a table will not go through it." DCXX. A certain nobleman who was a fool had got possession of a village, and he sent to those who were over it, saying, "Do not let the husbandmen sow "their fields any more with seed of the downy thorn "or with the pips and stones of fruit, because not a "quarter of it cometh up; but let them sow it with "pure seed, and let the poor sow grass seed likewise "without the pips and stones of fruit."
