Wisdom of King Solomon


Everyone has heard of Solomon. ( a short story ) The king of the Jew was famous all over the world for his wealth and magnificence and specially for his wisdom. The Queen of Sheba heard much about the grandeur of Solomon’s court and the worldwide reputation of his learning and wisdom.( a short story )  Attracted by such reports. She came to test the king. She brought with her two garlands of flowers-one natural and the other artificial. She placed them before the king to take the natural one. Solomon was puzzled for a time.( a short story )  While pondering he noticed some bees humming for honey in a withered rose. He asked the windows to be opened. The bees came in and settled on the natural flowers and thus solved the riddle of the Queen. ( a short story ) The Queen of Sheba was surprised and went admiring the king as of great wisdom.
