An eagle passed and said to Mahomet: "Don't do any
good to your parents, but since your father has made you blind take the
bark of this tree, apply it to your eyes, and you will be cured."
The young man was healed.
A short time after his father said to him, "I will wed your wife."
"You cannot," he answered. The Sultan convoked the Marabout, who refused
him the dispensation he demanded. Soon Mahomet killed his father and
celebrated his wedding-feast for seven days and seven nights.
