- Story
Long ago an old man lived alone in a small house. The children of the place used to come doing harm to him. He used to go and complain them to their mother. She paid no heed him and said that her own children were not there at all. They came again one night and the man caught them and stabbed them with a knife. Their mother came then accusing him about marking her children. " Ah", said the man "if I did not mark them you would say that they were not them atall."
