ÎAli Baba and the Forty Thieves´ has a lot to say about greed. Ali Baba steals from the thieves ² or, if it is not possible to steal something that has already been stolen, he at least does not make any attempt to restore the property to its rightful owners. His wife wants to measure the gold so that she will know exactly how much there is, even though she has no practical reason to do so. Qasim¶s wife is motivated by greed to find out what Ali Baba¶s wife is measuring. Qasim is not satisfied with what his brother shares with him, but is led by his greed into danger. The thieves clearly have enough treasure for their own needs, and yet are angry enough about Ali Baba¶s small reduction of their treasure that they are willing to go to a lot of trouble to exact revenge on him. Use the story as a writing prompt for student essays on greed. î Ali Baba, a poor woodcutter, happens to see and overhear a large band of thieves - forty in all - visiting their treasure store in the forest where he is cutting wood× The thieves' treasure is in a cave, the mouth of which is sealed by magic - it opens on the words "Ôpen, Sesame", and seals itself on the words "Close, Sesame"× When the thieves are gone, Ali Baba enters the cave himself, and takes some of the treasure home× Ali Baba's rich brother, Kasim, finds out about his brother's unexpected wealth, and Ali Baba tells Kasim about the cave× Kasim goes to the cave to take more of the treasure, but forgets the magic words to get back out of the cave, and the thieves find him there, and kill him× When his brother does not come back, Ali Baba goes to the cave to look for him, and finds the body, bringing it home× With the help of Morgiana, a clever slave-girl in Kasim's household, they are able to give Kasim a proper burial without arousing any suspicions about his death× The thieves, finding the body gone, realize that somebody else must know their secret, and set out to track him down× The first several times they are foiled by Morgiana, who is now a member of Ali Baba's household, but eventually they are able to ascertain the location of Ali Baba's house× The lead thief pretends to be an oil merchant in need of Ali Baba's hospitality, bringing with him mules loaded with 40 oil jars, one filled with oil, the other 39 with the other thieves× Ônce Ali Baba is asleep, the thieves plan to kill him× Again, Morgiana discovers and foils the plan, killing the 39 thieves in their oil jars by pouring boiling oil on them× When their leader comes to rouse his men, he discovers that they are dead, and escapes× The lead thief, disguised as a merchant, befriends Ali Baba's nephew (who is now in charge of the late Kasim's business), and is invited to dinner at Ali Baba's house× He is recognized by Morgiana, who performs a dance with a dagger for the diners and plunges it into the heart of the thief when he is off his guard× Thus, the story ends happily for everyone except the forty thieves and Ali Baba's brother× http://forum×daffodilvarsity×edu×bd/index×php?topic=1067×0
