The King and the Astrologer story (Sample-1)
Once there was a king who liked to know about his future from astrologers. One day, a wise astrologer stopped in his city while going to Benares. The king called him to ask about his future, but the astrologer said something the king did not like.
At this, the king got furious and condemned him to death, saying, “Men like you should not live to spoil the peace of the world.” But another thought crossed his mind before the astrologer was removed for execution. “How long would you live?” asked the king.
The astrologer mused for a while for some way of escape, as he was sure the king would prove him a liar, putting him to death then and there, if he would live longer than that day. With ready wit, he said, “The stars declare that I shall die only a week before your Majesty.
So, goodbye. I shall wait to receive your Majesty, where you have been sending me.” At this, the king turned pale as dead and shouted, “Drive this wretch away, let him not come again.”

Once upon a time, there was a king who was very knowledgeable of his future from the astrologer. A famous astrologer happened to stop at his capital on his way to Beneras. The king called on him to know his future, and the astrologer said something unpleasant.
At this, the king got furious. He sentenced the astrologer to death, saying, “A man like you should not live to spoil the peace of the world”. But another thought crossed his mind before the astrologer was removed for execution.
Then the king asked,” How long would you live?” With ready wit, he replied to the king that he would die only a week before the king’s death. At this, the king turned pale and shouted,” Drive this wretch away, let him not come again.”
