- Finally, the villagers grew tired of all the arguments, and they arranged for the curious men to visit the palace of the Rajah to learn the truth about elephants.When the blind men reached the palace, they were greeted by an old friend from their village who worked as a gardener on the palace grounds.
- Sit here and rest for the long journey home
- The blind men stepped forward to touch the creature that was the subject of so many arguments.
- "Each man touched only one part. Perhaps if you put the parts together, you will see the truth. Now, let me finish my nap in peace."
