Bullying
One man was publicly offending Omar Chajam:
- You’re an atheist! You’re drinker! Almost a thief!
Chajam just smiled in response.
One dandy dressed in the silk trousers watching that scene asked Chajam:
- How can you tolerate such offences? Do you not feel hurt?
Omar Chajam smiled again and told:
- Let’s go with me.
Dandy followed him to the dusty lumber-room. Chajam lighted the kin-dling and began rummaging in the trunk, where found completely worthless tattered robe. He threw it to dandy and said:
- Try it, it will match you.
Dandy took a robe, looked at it and resented:
- What these dirty rags are for? I am well dressed, and you must be crazy! – and threw a robe back.
- You see, - Chajam said, - you did not want to try rags. Similarly, I did not want to try those dirty words that man threw me.
To be aggrieved by offences means to try on rags someone throw us.
