The Story of the Other Wise Man
by Henry van Dyke
The story begins long ago, when Four Wise Men agree they must find the newborn Prince of Heaven and Earth. They all know this is the most important journey they will ever take, but one of them, named Artaban, spends too much time comforting a dying old man and cannot meet his three companions as they set out, so he misses his chance to visit Bethlehem with his three friends. Artaban must begin his search all over again, but he does not regret his decision. The story follows his days from youth to agedness in pursuit of this Prince.
