فیا لیت ما بینی وبین أحبتی من النعد ما بینی وبین المصائب (2/4) این داستان از بهر آن گفتم ، تا پاذشاه بر سیاستی کی محض ظلم وجور است اقدام ننمایذ ،. کی فردا از تنفیذ فرمان پشیمان شوذ ، ولایم افعال ، وعاذل اعما ل خوذ گردذ ؛ چنانک آن مرد از کشین طوطی ؛ و آنگاه عمری از تعجیل آن سیاست در تلهف و تأستف افتذ ، کی بحقیقت داستان مکر زنان از اشراف فهم ، وادراک وهم زیادت است ، وعاقل برین مردمان در چوال محال ایشان روذ ، وبعشوه ولاوهٔ‌ ایشان مغرور گردذ . واگر شاه را از تقریر این مقالات سآمت وملالت نیاورده است تا از مقامات مکر زنان ، ومقالات غدر ایشان حکایی گویم . شاه فرموذ : بگوی!

> Would that what lies between me and my loved ones in distance were like what lies between me and calamities!  
> I told this story in order that the king might not proceed with a punishment that is pure oppression and tyranny,  
> lest tomorrow he regret the execution of the command, and become a blamer of his own deeds and a reproacher  
> of his own actions, just as that man did from killing the parrot; and then, for a lifetime, from  
> the haste of that punishment, he fall into sorrow and grief, for in truth the story of the wiles of women  
> exceeds the grasp of understanding and the reach of apprehension, and an intelligent person should not, on account of these people, enter the sack  
> of their absurdities and be deceived by their flirtation and flattery. And if the king has not suffered weariness and boredom  
> from the relation of these discourses, let me tell a tale from the stations of the wiles of women and the accounts  
> of their treachery. The king commanded: “Speak!”
