“Once upon a time, there were a man and a woman by themselves...”
Once upon a time, there were a man and woman living by themselves. One night the man had a dream that he would find treasure on his own garden under an apple tree.
Next morning, he told his wife. He took a spade and went out. He did not know which tree it was under; he began to dig and dig and dig but he found nothing. "Now" said his wife "the garden is ruined and you found nothing."
