प्रश्न
Why did the Prince reward the farmer but punish the neighbour for the same act?
उत्तर
A certain prince hearing of the power of the ashes sent for the good old man. He sprinkled the ashes on the withered plum and cherry trees. The trees began to shoot out and blossom. So, the Prince gave him a rich reward of pieces of silk and cloth and other presents. The wicked old man also entered the Prince's place to show his power of reviving dead trees.
The Prince ordered him to exhibit his power. When he climbed up into a withered tree and scattered the ashes, not a but or flower appeared. All the ashes flew into the Prince's eyes and mouth, blinding and chocking him. When the retainers saw this they seized the old man and beat him almost to death. He and his wife found out that they had fallen into a trap. They scolded themselves for their act of greed.
