LESSON 22
Look at that poor old man. He sits at the tree by the side of the road.
He has come a long way, and now he wants rest and food.
His dog sits by his side, and waits for a share of the poor man’s food.
Come, old man, take some bread and meat out of your bag, and eat. Then give a bit of meat to your poor dog.
The old man once had a son, and this dog was his. But the son is dead, and now the dog lives with the old man.
The old man is kind to the dog, and says that as long as he has bread and meat the dog shall get its share.
Let us go and ask the old man to come in. Jane will bring him some warm food.
Come in, old man, and sit by the fire and rest.
