Mani narrated this parable for a Zoroastrian priest. The text of the parable contains some fragments in the Sogdian language and script from Leningrad manuscripts collection, which were published some years ago by A. N. Ragoza and later re-edited and reconstructed by N. Sims-Williams. Here the yet unpublished fragment Ch/So12400 from Turfan collection of the National Library of Berlin is reconstructed as a parallel of Leningrad fragment L83b to improve the text.
