43. People tell a student dunce that his beard is coming
in. So he goes off to the gate and prepares to receive the
beard. Another dunce, after asking and learning why he’s at
the gate, exclaims, ‘No wonder we’re thought to be dunces!
How do you know the beard isn’t coming through the other
gate?’
44. A student dunce who’s gone to bed beside his father
gets up at night and starts eating a bunch of grapes
suspended from the ceiling. His father, who has hidden a
lamp under a pot, is shocked by this behaviour. All at once,
he shines the lamp and exposes the culprit. The dunce
simply shuts his eyes and snores, pretending to be fast
asleep as he continues to stand there devouring the grapes.
45. In the middle of the night, a student dunce gets into
bed with his own grandmother. When his father gives him
a beating for this, the dunce protests, ‘All this time you’ve
been tupping my mother, and I never said a word! Now
you’re angry at having caught me just once with your
mother?
46. A student dunce’s farm agent reports that the river has
taken his entire property. ‘No fair!,’ shouts the dunce. ‘I’ll
sue!’
