On another occasion Goha said to the assembled company, O Muslims, Do you know why Allah gave no wings to the camel? We do not, O Goha, said his hearers, But surely you in your wisdom do. If camels had wings, explained Goha, They would perch on the flowers of your garden and, being very heavy, crush them to the ground.

Goha the Wise Fool appears in some editions when Schehrazade sees she is losing the King’s attention [“soon his face grew dark again”] and must improvise something more at the conclusion of that night’s tale, and then tells stories of the so-called Master of Laughter, but nothing she says about camels would have kept the exhausted drovers from their sleep even a second longer after their last glass of tea.
