Translated by Kathleen Merz.

In this variant of "The Miller, His Son, and Their Donkey" wise Mustafa uses the story's events to teach his son Nasreddine an important lesson. There's a culture-revealing specificity in the repartee and the goods they're taking to market (dates, wool, chickens), and the art is vibrant with organic-looking architecture and creative perspectives.
