    Tea was served and the bride sneezed. When she sneezed the first time nobody said "God bless her". She sneezed a second time and nobody said "God bless her". The boy on the roof decided that he himself would say "God bless her" the next time she should sneeze. She sneezed a third time and the boy on the roof shouted "God bless her".
