Birbal arrived late for a function and the emperor was displeased1.
 
"My child was crying and I had to placate2 him," explained the courtier.
 
"Does it take so long to calm down a child?" asked the emperor. "It appears you know nothing about child rearing3. Now you pretend to be a child and I shall act as your father and I will show you how you should have dealt with your child. Go on. Ask me for whatever he asked of you."
 
"I want a cow," said Birbal.
 
Akbar ordered a cow to be brought to the palace.
 
"I want its milk. I want its milk," said Birbal, imitating the voice of a small child.
 
"Milk the cow and give to him," said Akbar to his servants.
 
The cow was milked and the milk was offered to Birbal. He drank a little and then handed the bowl back to Akbar.
 
"Now put the rest of it back into the cow, put it back, put in back, put it back..." wailed4 Birbal.
 

The emperor was flabbergasted and quietly left the room.
