الجوع ترضی الاسود بالحیف صعلوک باحتیاط تمام گام ر می داشت ، ودست تر پشت ستوران می نهاذ ، تا گذام فربهتر یابذ بر نشنیذ ، واز میان بیرون آرذ . در اثنای آن حست وجوی دست بر پشت شیر نهاذ ، بدست او از دیگر ستوران بهتر مموذ ، وفربهتر آمذ ؛ تر فور پای در پشت شیر آورد ، وبر وی سوار شذ؛ 2 وبتعجیل از میان ستوران بیرون راند ، وشیر از بیم شمشیر صعلوک روان گشت ، وصعلوک آن را در جر وجوی بشتاب می راند ، وشیر در نشیب وفراز از خوف حان ، سهل العنان وسلس القیاد اورا منقاد می بوذ :

> "Hunger makes lions accept injustice."  
> The rogue took steps with utmost caution, and placed his hand on the backs of the mounts  
> to mount whichever he found fattest and lead it out from their midst. In the midst of that  
> search, he placed his hand upon the back of the lion; to his touch it seemed better than the other beasts  
> and felt fatter. Forthwith he threw his leg over the lion's back and mounted upon him,  
> and drove him out in haste from among the beasts. The lion, out of fear of the rogue's sword, began to move,  
> and the rogue drove him along rapidly through ditch and stream; and the lion, through descent  
> and ascent, out of fear for his life, was compliant to him, loose-reined and tractable to lead:
