  1. (continued from previous page)
    Then there is the story of a poor couple who had to live on the milk of one cow.
    In order to be kind to the husband the wife boiled the milk into whey, and gave the curds to the husband, drinking the whey herself. She tried to fill him, and so satisfy his hunger: but the curds killed him as nothing can be more indigestible than curds.
