CHAPTER III - ON THE EXCELLENCE OF CONTENTMENT
 
 
Story 1
 
 
  A Maghrabi supplicant said in Aleppo in the row of linen-drapers:
'Lords of wealth, if you were just and we contented, the trade of
begging would vanish from the world.'
 
 
        O contentment, make me rich
        For besides thee no other wealth exists.
        Loqman selected the corner of patience.
        Who has no patience has no wisdom.
