Once upon a time a King had a certain man to mind a crock of gold which he had hidden in a field. The King told the man to be there whenever he would come. One day the King came the man was gone. In the end the King met a soldier and asked him did he see any man with a crock of gold. He told him he saw a man digging a hole in the corner of a field. The King asked the soldier to come where he saw him digging and when they arrived there the man was covered and buried. The field took fire and burned the King. So that was the end of the King.
