Dignity for appearance
Sheikh Saadi was a great poet of Iran. He used to lead a very simple life. The king used to invite him very often to his court. Once on his way to the court of the king, he took shelter in a nobleman's house for a night. He was then in a very simple dress. The rich man considered him to be an ordinary traveler and did not entertain him well.
The next day, Saad left the rich man's house and reached the king's court. The king received him well and presented him royal dress. On his way back home, Saadi again took shelter in the same rich man's house. Seeing his royal dress, the man took a great care of him and served him rich and delicious food items Saadi started putting the food items in his pocket. The rich man becomes astonished at his strange behavior and asked the reason for doing so. Saadi gently told him about his behavior on the first day and the second day. The delicious food was given to him for the dress. So I am putting this food in my dress.
The man became very ashamed of remembering his behavior and begged pardon. Saadi then introduced himself to the rich man and took leave of him.
