    A long time ago a poor man and woman lived together.

    (continued from previous page)
    the money counted, the woman began moving on the door. She fell down on the money and sow. The robbers thinking she was something unearthly ran away leaving the money and sow behind them. The man and woman went home and lived happily for ever afterwards.
