Jafar And The Magic Ring
Jafar found his magic ring in a Baghdad trash heap. While polishing it, a powerful djinni appeared.
"Your wish is my command."
Jafar was ecstatic and his mind pleasured in all the magnificent wealth and luxuries that would now be his.
"I wish to be the richest man in the world."
The djinni declined. "That's too much trouble. Wish something else."
"Then I wish to marry a beautiful princess."
To Jafar's consternation, the djinni again refused. "That's even worse."
After much negotiation, Jafar found himself the proud owner of a lovely gray donkey and a year's worth of leavened bread.
