### [123.47](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.fa.qissa.sindbadnama~en-mt.123.47)

Sindbād Undertakes the Education of the Prince and the Viziers Object  
of astrology, knowledge of the degrees and minutes of the ephemeris, the subtlety of the science of medicine, extracts of the properties of drugs,  
and other subjects besides. And if any deficiency or delay should enter into its requirements,  
I shall be deserving of the king's punishment and chastisement.' The company of viziers and courtiers marveled at this speech  
and said, 'O sage, you have made a tremendous claim! The wise have said that every word  
that does not culminate in action is a rainless cloud, a blunted sword, and a barren tree.
