Birbal was jester, counsellor, and fool to the great Moghul emperor, Akbar.
The villagers loved to talk of Birbal's wisdom and cleverness,
and the emperor loved to try to outsmart him.

"Birbal," he ordered, "you must make this line shorter, but you cannot erase any bit of it."

Toil hard stones to meal,
Exterminates king, collapse town,
And blows the mountains down.
