 he said there was a man from allatah who had sons who were of high status and chivalry. he disgraced them by walking with the boys and seeking them out. they rebuked him and said we will buy you as many slave girls as you wish and you can occupy yourself with them. you have disgraced us among the people. he said suppose you buy me what you mentioned but how can your sheikh deal with the heat of the two calamities? so they left his rebuke and knew that there was no way out of it.
٢ قال كان رجل من اللاطة وله بنون لهم أقدار ومروءات، فشانهم بمشيته مع الغلمان وطلبه لهم، فعاتبوه وقالوا نحن نشتري لك من الوصائف على ما تشتهي، تشتغل بهن، فقد فضحتنا في الناس. فقال هبكم تشترون لي ما ذكرتم فكيف لشيخكم بحرارة الجلجلتين! فتركوا عتابه وعلموا أنه لا حيلة فيه.
