I noticed an Arab of the desert sitting in a company of jewelers.
He
said:
"I had once lost my road in the desert and consumed all my food.
I considered that I must perish when I suddenly caught sight of a
bulging canvas bag.
I shall never forget the joy and ecstasy I felt on
thinking it might be parched grain nor the bitterness and despair when
I discovered it to be full of pearls."
Sa'di
