He (the Demon), having called himself by the name of the prophet Solomon, makes it a mask to deceive every (foolish) boy.
نام خود کرده سلیمان نبی ** روی‌پوشی می‌کند بر هر صبی
Pass on from the (outward) form and rise beyond the name: flee from title and from name (and enter) into reality.1285
در گذر از صورت و از نام خیز ** از لقب وز نام در معنی گریز
Inquire, then, about his (spiritual) degree and his (interior) actions: in the midst of his degree and actions seek (to discover) him.
پس بپرس از حد او وز فعل او ** در میان حد و فعل او را بجو
How Solomon, on whom be peace, entered the Farther Mosque daily, after its completion, for the purpose of worshipping and directing the worshippers and devotees; and how medicinal herbs grew in the Mosque.
درآمدن سلیمان علیه‌السلام هر روز در مسجد اقصی بعد از تمام شدن جهت عبادت و ارشاد عابدان و معتکفان و رستن عقاقیر در مسجد
Every morning, when Solomon came and made supplication in the Farther Mosque.
هر صباحی چون سلیمان آمدی ** خاضع اندر مسجد اقصی شدی
He saw that a new plant had grown there; then he would say, “Tell thy name and use.
نوگیاهی رسته دیدی اندرو ** پس بگفتی نام و نفع خود بگو
What medicine art thou? What art thou? What is thy name? To whom art thou hurtful and for whom is thy usefulness?”
تو چه دارویی چیی نامت چیست ** تو زیان کی و نفعت بر کیست
Then every plant would tell its effect and name, saying “I am life to that one, and death to this one.1290
پس بگفتی هر گیاهی فعل و نام ** که من آن را جانم و این را حمام
I am poison to this one, and sugar to that one: this is my name (inscribed) on the Tablet by (the pen of) the Divine decree.”
من مرین را زهرم و او را شکر ** نام من اینست بر لوح از قدر
Then (by hearing) from Solomon about those plants the physicians became learned and wise authorities (on medicine),
پس طبیبان از سلیمان زان گیا ** عالم و دانا شدندی مقتدی
So that they compiled medical books and were relieving the body from pain.
تا کتبهای طبیبی ساختند ** جسم را از رنج می‌پرداختند
