The Magician and the Sultan’s Son
So he called on Keejaanaa, and inquired who he was.
“Oh, I’m just an ordinary being, like other people.”
“Are you a traveler?”
“Well, I have been; but I like this place, and think I’ll settle down here.”
“Why don’t you come and walk in our town?”
“I should like to very much, but I need some one to show me around.”
“Oh, I’ll show you around,” said the sultan, eagerly, for he was quite taken with the young man.
After this Keejaanaa and the sultan became great friends; and in the course of time the young man married the sultan’s daughter, and they had one son.
They lived very happily together, and Keejaanaa loved Faaraasee as his own soul.
