THE MISER
A Miser sold everything he had,and melted down his hoard of gold into a single lump,which he buried secretly in a field.Every day he went to look at it,and would sometimes spend long hours gloating over his treasure.One of his men noticed his frequent visits to the spot,and one day watched him and discovered his secret.Waiting his opportunity he went one night and dug up the gold and stole it.Next day the Miser visited the place as usual,and,finding his treasure gone,fell to tearing his hair and groaning over his loss.In this condition he was seen by one of his neighbours,who asked him what his trouble was.The Miser told him of his misfortune;but the other replied,“Don’t take it SO much to heart.my——iend;put a brick into the hole.and take a look at it every day:you won’t be any WOrSe off than before,for even when you had your gold it was ofno earthly use to you.”
