He has come with a message from the Persian emperor, Choesroe.
He has come with a message from the Persian emperor, Choesroe. Neither he dreads the lightning nor the change of times. The strong she-camel, leaving the earth behind is taking me to the Toor and conveys me to the hard ground. So much so that she is weak because of the arduous journey and the wind envelops her with swirling dust. It seems that due to the speed the sandy dust of the dunes will fall upon me. And now I have lost hope.
When Satih heard this he opened his eyes and said: Abdul Masih mounted a camel and after covering the stages of journey reached Satih at a time when he (Satih) is being transferred to the grave. The Sasanid king has sent him to find the truth behind the quaking of the palace, the going out of the fire-temple, the dream of the greatest scholar and the drying up of the Sawa river.
O Abdul Masih, the time has come when it (Quran) will be recited in excess and a prophet who always carried a small staff will arise. The streams of Sawa will be full of water and the sea will dry up. Damascus and Persia will go out of the control of their rulers and the same number of kings will rule as the number of the arches of Caesar and Choesroe have fallen. After that their rule shall decline and whatever has to happen will indeed happen.
After saying this Satih died and Abdul Masih recited the following couplets: Do it as you have a firm determination and you do what you will. No separation and change should weaken your resolve. If the king of Bani Sasan tries to do he will have to give them up because it is the time of difficulties and calamities. And it is possible that those people may say farewell to their place when their strength declines before the ferocious lions.
And in these places live the dear Behram and his brothers and Hurmuzan, Saboor and Saboor. And people are born of different mothers having no attachment to each other. Thus they should know that if he is deficient and becomes helpless, he would be disgraced. These people belong to the same mother. If they see wealth and riches, they will through the unseen become safe and dominant. And the good and the bad are found together. Thus everyone follows the good and keeps away from the bad.
After that Abdul Masih returned to the king of Persia with utmost speed and narrated all that Satih had told.
