"The glazed eyes of my camels brightened at the new note in my husky voice.With great effort, after many attempts, they gained their feet. With pitifulperseverance, they pushed on toward the north where something within mesaid we would find Babylon."We found water. We passed into a more fertile country where were grass andfruit. We found the trail to Babylon because the soul of a free man looks atlife as a series of problems to be solved and solves them, while the soul of aslave whines, 'What can I do who am but a slave?'"How about thee, Tarkad? Dost thy empty stomach make thy head exceedinglyclear? Art ready to take the road that leads back to self respect? Canst thousee the world in its true color? Hast thou the desire to pay thy honest debts,however many they may be, and once again be a man respected in Babylon?"Moisture came to the eyes of the youth. He rose eagerly to his knees. "Thouhas shown me a vision; already I feel the soul of a free man surge within me.""But how fared you upon your return?" questioned an interested listener."Where the determination is, the way can be found" Dabasir replied. "I nowhad the determination so I set out to find a way. First I visited every man towhom I was indebted and begged his indulgence until I could earn that withwhich to repay. Most of them met me gladly. Several reviled me but othersoffered to help me; one indeed did give me the very help I needed. It wasMathon, the gold lender. Learning that I had been a camel tender in Syria; hesent me to old Nebatur, the camel trader, just commissioned by our goodking to purchase many herds of sound camels for the great expedition. Withhim, my knowledge of camels I put to good use. Gradually I was able to repayevery copper and every piece of silver. Then at last I could hold up my headand feel that I was an honourable man among men."Again Dabasir turned to his food. "Kauskor, thou snail," he called loudly to beheard in the kitchen, "the food is cold. Bring me more meat fresh from theroasting. Bring thou also a very large portion for Tarkad, the son of my oldfriend, who is hungry and shall eat with me."So ended the tale of Dabasir the camel trader of old Babylon. He found hisown soul when he realized a great truth, a truth that had been known andused by wise men long before his time.96Brought To You Byhttp://TheDiamondsMine.com
