A king built a palace of mirrors and placed a rare rose in front of it whose image was reflects by hundreds of mirrors. The other day he released a pigeon in the palace. The pigeon, in a very powerful desire to attain the rose, kept finding it and kept hurting his beak into every mirror. He thought this one or that one would be real, but none happened to be. His beak was paining, tired by the mirages, he laid down in the courtyard where he noticed the actual rose. He found it when he stopped searching it at the outside.
