阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Many years ago, in one of the Arabian tribes(部落),there was a man named Nabor who owned a beautiful horse. This horse was famous for being both fast and gentle. Now, an Arab named Jehu, who belonged to another tribe wanted this horse.
Jehu had offered his camels and many valuable treasures for the horse but the owner would not sell it. Jehu then thought up a trick by which he hoped to get the horse for himself.
He decided to dress in rags, dirty his face and blindfold himself. Thus, he lay by the roadside to wait for the owner of the horse, who he knew would pass by that way.
When he saw Nabor coming on his beautiful horse, he cried out in a weak voice, “I am a poor and sick blind man. For three days and nights I have been unable to move from this spot to find food. I am dying; help me please.”
Nabor kindly offered to take him on his horse and carry him home; but Jehu replied, “I cannot stand; I have no strength left,” Nabor felt pity for him and got off his horse. He led his horse to the man and, with great difficulty, helped him onto the horse’s back. But, once Jehu was sitting in the saddle(鞍), he kicked the horse and galloped off, calling out as he did so, “I have the horse; and you will never see it again. Goodbye!” Nabor was, at first, surprised and sad but he soon ran after the thief, shouting to him to stop as he had something to say to him.
