Description & Specifications

MATERIAL OF THE FOREST

When the Master of the house unlocked and opened the door of his house to enter and rest, all his loved ones saw and looked at him for the first time in twenty years and said, what happened to you! You’ve aged! They concluded he had aged. And the Master of the house admitted that he had indeed aged, but this year his voice had gone and he could not express it verbally.

And everyone in his house began to mourn him, and he admitted to himself that he had grown old, his hearing had become immobilized and he heard their lamentation cemented. And then they undressed him, bathed him, anointed him, dressed him in his best suit, the one his mother had put on him, and thought the Master at his wedding, and they kept vigil all night.

And in the morning they took him to an antique shop. The antique dealer said I will buy your master, and he bought him, and paid the price to his family, and placed the Master in the shop's display, next to wardrobes and hangers of old families and other items for sale, in the window. He was placed upright.

And his loved ones received the payment and returned home to their Master. And his dog barked. The shopkeeper attached a price tag to him the next day and for eight months he remained in a prominent display window.

And one day he looked at the expiration date that the shopkeeper had affixed to him and saw that it was overdue, but his voice had dissipated and he was unable to form a sound. And from then on, the other items next to him began to accept him as a fellow citizen.
