ALI BABA AND FORTY THIEVES.
Cassim and Ali Baba are brothers. Cassim is rich and he does not have to work at all. Ali Baba is poor. He goes into forest to get firewood to sell.
One day in the forest, he hears the sound of many horses. He hides up a tree when he sees forty robbers.
The robbers stand in front of a big rock. Their leader says, “Open Sesame!” A door in the rock opens. One by one they go inside.
When they come out again their leader says, “Close Sesame!” The door in the rock closes and they leave.
Ali baba comes down and says, “Open Sesame!” He goes inside and sees a huge cave full of gold and jewels. He picks up a sack of gold coins and goes out. Then he says, “Close Sesame!”
When Ali Baba reaches home, he asks his wife to borrow a measure from Cassim. They measure the gold coins into small bags.
When the measure is returned, Cassim’s wife finds a gold coin sticking to the wax under the measure!
The next day, Cassim quietly follows Ali Baba to the forest. He sees Ali Baba going in and out of cave. When Ali Baba has left, Cassim goes in.
Suddenly the robbers come into the cave. They see Cassim there and kill him. Later Ali Baba finds his dead body back to be buried.
The robbers return and find the dead body missing. They want to kill the person who has taken it away! So the next day, the leader dresses as an oil merchant. He meets Ali Baba and asks to rest in his house.
He has forty donkeys with huge jars. Only one of the jars has oil. Each of the rest has a robber hiding there. They will kill the family when all are asleep! The night, the servant girl wants to get some oil for cooking. She finds robbers hiding in the jars.
She pours some hot oil into every jar to kill the robbers. Later she dances with a knife for the robber leader and kills him too.
Ali Baba thanks her for saving the family. He says, “You are free now.” She later marries Ali Baba’s son and they all live happily together.
