The Fairy's Two Gifts (5)
As she rose to go she said farewell, and thanked them for their hospitality.
At the door she turned and said : " As you have been so kind to me when you thought I was poor and in need, therefore I will show you that I have power to reward you. Three times shall your wish be granted you. "
" and What greater blessings can I wish for, " said the husband, " but that we two, as long as we live, may be healthy and strong, and that we may always have our simple daily wants provided for ? I cannot think of a third wish. "
" Would you not like a new house instead of this old one ? " she asked.
" Oh yes, " they both cried ; " if we have these three wishes granted we shall want nothing more. "
The the Fairy changed the old house into a new one, and promising them the fulfilment of their other wishes, went on her way.
