美人计
there was in persia in the fifth century a king called cavades. when he was deposed and imprisoned by his subjects, his queen, who alone remained attached to him, never failed to bring him necessaries with her own hands, though she was not permitted to see him.
one day, the queen noticed that the jailer appeared captivated by her beauty, and she soothed him so far as to be allowed access to her husband. her visits were at length premitted to take place free from observation, and one evening she changed clothes with her husband. thus disguised, cavades stole out of the prison. he fled to the king of the euthalites, by whose assistance he was afterwards restored to his throne and kingdom.

五世纪波斯有个国王叫卡瓦德斯。他被臣下推翻了,系在狱中,只有王后依旧忠于他,虽然不获准和他见面,却总是亲自给他送必需品。
有一天,王后发觉狱卒似乎被她美色所迷,就致力讨好这狱卒,终于获许见丈夫。后来,她甚至可以在没有看守之下探监。一天晚上,她和丈夫更换衣服。卡瓦德斯男扮女装,溜出监狱,逃去投靠优泰莱特人的国王,获他协助,最后夺回王位和国家。
