` Dear me ! is that all ? why it is child 's play , ' answered the head ; and troubled no more about the palace for thirty-nine days . Then he told the old woman to go to the bridge and call for Hassan . ` What do you want , old woman ?

' ` He shall be obeyed , ' answered Hassan . And when the sultan woke he saw , in the distance , a palace built of soft blue marble , resting on slender pillars of pure gold . ` That old woman 's son is certainly all-powerful , ' cried he ; ` what shall I bid him do now ? ' And after thinking some time he sent for the old woman , who was expecting the summons . ` The garden is wonderful , and the palace the finest in the world , ' said he , ` so fine , that my servants would cut but a sorry figure in it . Let your son fill it with forty slaves whose beauty shall be unequalled , all exactly like each other , and of the same height . ' This time the king thought he had invented something totally impossible , and was quite pleased with himself for his cleverness . Thirty-nine days passed , and at midnight on the night of the last the old woman was standing on the bridge . ` Bekir ! Bekir ! Bekir ! ' cried she . And a negro appeared , and inquired what she wanted .
` The head , your master , bids you find forty slaves of unequalled beauty , and of the same height , and place them in the sultan 's palace XXXXX the other side of the garden . '
