## The Miser
A MISER sold all that he had and bought a lump of gold, which he buried in a hole in the ground by the side of an old wall and went to look at daily.
The Miser, on his next visit, found the hole empty and began to tear his hair and to make loud lamentations.
He never allowed Godfrey a shilling in his life, for he is an absolute miser, but it will all come to him right enough.”
