“Oh King, we assure you that your wishes will all be fulfilled. But tell us why do you make such strange
wishes?”
Alexander took a deep breath and said, “I would like the world to know of the three lessons I have just learnt. I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realize that no doctor can really cure any bodies. They are powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let people not take life for granted.
“The second wish of strewing gold, silver and other riches on the way to the graveyard is to tell people that not even a bit of gold will come with me. I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me. Let people realize that it is just a waste of time to chase wealth.
“And about my third wish of having my hands hanging out of the coffin, I wish people to know that I came emptyhanded into this world and emptyhanded out of this world.” With these words, the King closed his eyes.
Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last.
