The Three Wishes (2)

The Three Wishes (2)

" You've done more for yourself than you know, " replied the Fairy.
" To show I'm not ungrateful, I'll grant you your next three wishes. "

Then the Fairy vanished, leaving the Woodcutter wondering if he had been dreaming.

He slung the axe over his shoulder and started for home.



When he got there, he sat by the fire and called to his wife.

He told her what happened, and she began to formulate all sort of grand plans.

However, realizing they should act prudently, she said, " Let's not spoil anything by being impatient. We must think things over carefully. Let's put our first wish off until tomorrow and sleep on it. "

" You are right, " said the Woodcutter.

He sat back in his chair by the fire and warmed himself.
" What a fine blaze ! " the Woodcutter said.
