when the people had finished eating they brought drink in silver vessels and golden cups. the bracelet men and the upper classes drank from golden cups. when the people had departed and the tables were cleared one of the people took a golden cup and hid it in his cloak while anushirvan was looking at it. but he turned his face away from it.
فلما فرغ الناس من الطعام، جاؤوا بالشراب في آنية الفضة، وجامات الذهب. فشرب الأساورة وأهل الطبقة العالية في آنية الذهب. فلما انصرف الناس، ورفعت الموائد، أخذ بعض القوم جام ذهب، فأخفاه في قبائه، وأنوشروان يلحظه. فصرف وجهه عنه.
