"Ali Baba en de veertig roovers (Verhaal uit de Duizend en een Nacht)" by Gerhard et al. is a folk tale added to One Thousand and One Nights in the 18th century. A poor woodcutter discovers a thieves' cave that opens with the magic phrase "open sesame." When his greedy brother attempts to steal the treasure and is killed, the thieves hunt for their secret's keeper. Ali Baba's clever slave-girl Morgiana must outwit the forty thieves through cunning deceptions to protect her master's household from deadly vengeance.
