"It cannot be my ferejeh, of course," said the Cadi hastily; "though there is a similarity which at first deceived me."
"Then I will keep it till the man claims it," said the Khoja.

Tale 20.—The Two Pans.
One day the Khoja borrowed a big pan of his next-door neighbour.
When he had done with it he put a smaller pan inside it, and carried it back.
"What is this?" said the neighbour.
"It is a young pan," replied the Khoja. "It is the child of your big pan, and therefore belongs to you."
