He happened to do something whereby he incurred the displeasure of the king who inflicted a fine on him and also otherwise punished him. The officials of the king, mindful of the benefits they had formerly received from him and being by them pledged to gratitude, treated him kindly whilst in their custody and allowed no one to insult him.</a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><a href="http://www.citatepedia.com/comments.php?id=512097" style="color:#000;text-decoration:none"> If thou desirest peace from the foe, whenever he <br> Finds fault behind thy back praise him to his face. <br> A vicious fellow’s mouth must utter words. <br> If thou desirest not bitter words, sweeten his mouth. </a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><a href="http://www.citatepedia.com/comments.php?id=512097" style="color:#000;text-decoration:none">He was absolved of some accusations brought by the king against him but retained in prison for some. Another king in those regions secretly dispatched a message to him, to the purport that the sovereigns of that country, not knowing his excellent qualities, had dishonoured him, but that if his precious mind (may Allah prosper the end of his affairs) were to look in this direction, the utmost efforts would be made to please him, because the nobles of this realm would consider it an honour to see him and are waiting for a reply to this letter. The khajah, who had received this information, being apprehensive of danger, forthwith wrote a brief and suitable answer on the back of the sheet of paper and sent it back. One, however, of the king’s courtiers, who noticed what had taken place, reported to him that the imprisoned khajah was in correspondence with the princes of the adjacent country. The king became angry and desired this affair to be investigated. The courier was overtaken and deprived of the letter, the contents of which were found on perusal to be as follows: "The good opinion of high personages is more than their servant’s merit deserves, who is unable to comply with the honour of reception which they have offered him, because having been nourished by the bounty of this dynasty, he cannot become unthankful towards his benefactor in consequence of a slight change of sentiments of the latter, since it is said:</a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><a href="http://www.citatepedia.com/comments.php?id=512097" style="color:#000;text-decoration:none"> He who bestows every moment favours upon thee <br> Is to be pardoned by thee if once in his life he injures thee." </a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><a href="http://www.citatepedia.com/comments.php?id=512097" style="color:#000;text-decoration:none">The king approved of his gratitude, bestowed upon him a robe of honour, gave him presents and asked his pardon, saying: "I committed a mistake." He replied: "My lord, it was the decree of God the most high that a misfortune should befall this servant but it was best that it should come from thy hands which had formerly bestowed favours upon him and placed him under obligations."</a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><a href="http://www.citatepedia.com/comments.php?id=512097" style="color:#000;text-decoration:none"> If people injure thee grieve not <br> Because neither rest nor grief come from the people. <br> Be aware that the contrasts of friend and foe are from God <br> Because the hearts of both are in his keeping. <br> Although the arrow is shot from the bow <br> Wise men look at the archer.</a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><a href="http://poems.citatepedia.com/">poem</a> by <strong><a rel="author" href="http://authors.citatepedia.com/by.php?a=Sa+di">Sa di</a></strong></div>
