Early next morning Cassim set off for, the robbers’ cave with mules'loaded with chests to take all the treasure away. Following All Baba’s instructions he soon found the rock. Immediately he cried “Open Sesame!” the door flew open and, to his delight and wonderment, he found himself gazing upon treasure greater than he had ever dreamed about. But Cassini's greed was to bo his undoing. So delighted was ho to bo with so much gold that ho did not realise how the time was flying, and when at last ho decided to go, he found to his horror that he had forgotten the magic words that would open the door. Sesame is a kind of grain, and all Cassim could think of was oats and barley. Open Barley!” he kept crying, but, of course, nothing happened, and then he heard the robbers outside the cave.
Cassim’s wife, who knew that her husband had gone to get the treasure, waited anxiously for his return. But when night fell and he had not returned she became very much afraid, and hurried round to Ali Baba to see if he could help her. Ali Baba did his best to comfort her and told her to come round in the morning if Cassim had not returned. Cassini did not. come back, and next morning his** wife was in a great state of terror. Ah Baba, who was a very kind hearted follow, forgot all about his brother’s greed and bad behaviour, ana, tolling her not to worry, ho immediately set oft for the cave to see what had happened.
