Lesson 9 Fortune and the beggar
One day a beggar was walking along from house to house.
He carried an old bag in his hand,
and was asking at every door for a few cents to buy something to eat.
While he was begging he kept wondering why people who had so much money
were never satistied but were always wanting more.
"Here,"he thought aloud,"is the master of this house.
I know him well.He was very rich.
If he had been wise
he would have stopped his business and burned it over to someone else.
Then he could have spent the rest of his life in comfort.
But what did he do instead
He spared no efforts to build ships and sent them to sea to trade with foreign countries.
He thought he would get mountains of gold.
"But the sea boiled in the storms;
his ships were ruined by the waves.
Now his hopes all lie at the bottom of the sea,
and his great wealth has gone like the dreams of a night.
"There are many such men.
They seem to be never satistied unless they can gain the whole world.
"As for me,if I had only enough to fill my stomach and cover my body
I would not want anything more."
Just at taht moment Fortune came down the street.
She saw the beggar and stopped.She said to him:
"Listen!I have long wished to help you out of poverty.
Hold your bag and I will pour this gold into it.
But I will pour only on this condition:
All that falls into the bag shall be gold;
but every piece that falls upon the ground shall become dust.
Do you understand"
"Oh,yes,I understand,"said the begger.
"Then take care,"said the Fortune.
"Your bag is old.It cannot hold much."
The beggar was so excited that he could hardly wait.
He quickly opened his bag,
and a stream of yellow dollars was poured into it.
The bag soon began to grow heavy.
"Is that enough" asked Fortune."Not yet."
"Isn't the bag bursting" "Don't worry!"
The beggar's hands began to tremble.
Ah,if the golden stream would only pour forever!
"You are the richest man in the world now!"
"Just a little more,"said the beggar.
"There,it's full.The bag will burst."
"But it will hold a little more,just a little more."
Another piece was added,and the bag burst.
The treasure fell upon the ground and was turned to dust.
Fortune had gone.
The beggar had now nothing but his broken bag.
He was poorer than before.

Oh, my god!

One day a begger was begging,he wondered why the rich never satisfied.He remember a rich man he knew,he thought the rich man had gained enough that he could stop his business and had comfort once for all.But he didn't.His ship broke because of the storm,and his great wealth has gone like the dreams of a night.He thought he would be satisfied if only he could get something to eat.As he thought,a Fortune appeared,the Fortune offered him gold,which would be really gold only if lying in his bag,and every piece that falls upon the ground shall become dust.But the begger didn't react as he thought,he wasn't satisefied with the whole bag and still wanted more.At last the bag burst and he became poorer than before.
