“Once upon a time a Protestant man went for a Priest...”
Once upon a time a Protestant man went for a Priest for his brother who was sick. When he was going to the house he had to cross a stile. When he was crossing the stile he fell and broke his leg. After a while when the man saw that he was not coming he went to see where he was. When he found the priest he asked him what was he doing. The priest said he fell and hurt his leg, but he said: IF that didn't happen worse would.
