The worms which wore in the body of Job crept up into a mulberry tree there and began to eat its leaves, and then knitted themselves a covering and shut themselves up in this covering. The nest where they remained was called, as it is now, pillat a cocoon. [According to other traditions the worms which fell into the water became leeches and those which flew away became bees.] The Imam Jagaffar Sadyk being asked the question, 'Who was the first silk- winder and inventor of this trade?' said: * D...avd-darai came to that treo where were the worms, and taking a cocoon in his hand said to GKxl : *' Oh pure giver of all creatures on the land, these worms have come away from the body of Thy friend and have placed themselves on this tree, and they feed themselves on it, and here they spin cocoons which serve as a covering for their bodies ; would«t Thou open to me how cocoons were formed, and how the worms proceeded from the body of Thy friend, so that people should profit by them and remember him?
