So they took leave of one another and departedeach for his own countryKing Dirbas's Vizier carrying with him Uns el Wujoudwho was still insensible. They bore him with them on mulebackunknowing if he were carried or notfor three days，at the end of which time he came to himself and said'Where am I？'Thou art in company with King Dirbas's Vizier，'answered they and went and told the latterwho sent him rose-water and sherbet of sugarof which they gave him to drink and restored him. Then they fared on till they drew near King Dirbas's capital and the Kingbeing advised of his Vizier's coming，wrote to himsaying'An Uns el Wujoud be not with theecome not to me ever.'
When the Vizier read the royal mandateit was grievous to him，for he knew not that Rose-in-bud was with the King nor why he had sent him in quest of Uns el Wujoudneither knew he that the fakir he had with him was Uns el Wujoud himself；and the latter in like manner knew not whither they were bound nor that the Vizier had been despatched in quest of himself. Sowhen he saw him thus chagrinedhe said to him'What ails thee？'And he answered'I was sent by the King on an errandwhich I have not been able to accomplish. Sowhen he heard of my returnhe wrote to me？ saying'Enter not my cityexcept thou have fulfilled my need.''And what is the King's need？'asked Uns el Wujoud. So the Vizier told him the caseand he said，'Fear nothingbut go boldly to the King and take me with thee；and I will be surety to thee for the coming of Uns el Wujoud.'
At this the Vizier rejoiced and said'Is this true that thou sayest？'Yes，'answered he；whereupon the Vizier mounted and carried him to King Dirbaswho said to him'Where is Uns el Wujoud？'O King，'answered the young man'I know where he is.'So the King called him to him and said'Where？'Near at handreplied Uns d Wujoud. 'Tell me what thou wouldst with himand I will fetch him to thee.'With all my heart，'answered the King；'but the case calls for privacy.'
