A king had a lkarge number of slaves. One of them was very black. He was true
to the king. So the king loved him greately.
One day the king went out on a camel. Some slaves walked in front of the king.
Others went behind the king. The black slave rode on a horse by the side of his
master – The King.
The King had a box. There were pearls in it. On the way the box fell down in a
narrow street. It broke into pieces. The pearls rolled on the ground.
The king said to his slaves. “Go and take the pearls. I do not want them any
longer,” said the king.
The slaves ran and gathered the pearls. They took those pearls. The black slave
did not leave his place.
He was by the side of his master. He guarded his master. He cared for the life
of his master. He did not care for the master’s pearls. He was the true
servant.
The king observed the attitude of the servant and gave him many gifts.
