Analysis of Ch 04 On The Advantages Of Silence Story 06

Sa di 1210 (Shiraz) – 1291 (Shiraz)



Subhan Vail is considered to have had no equal in rhetorics because he had addressed an assembly during a year and had not repeated the same word but, when the same meaning happened to occur, he expressed it in another manner and this is one of the accomplishments of courtiers and princes.

A word if heart-binding and sweet  
      Is worthy of belief and of approbation.  
      When thou hast once said it do not utter it again  
      Because sweets, once partaken of, suffice.
