    a bigger church founded and people occupied the old church.
    This forge is built in the heart of the country which makes it better for his trade. The smith cools his irons in the stream that flows besides the forge. He starts work at nine in the morning and finishes at eight in the evening. He works very hard during the day. He takes his meals at twelve o’clock in the evening every day.
