A student was one day taking a walk with his teacher. As they went along, they saw a pair of old shoes
lying in the path. They were a poor farmer’s, who was working in the nearby field.
The student turned to the teacher, saying: ―we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those trees,
and wait to see what he will do.‖
“My young friend,” answered the teacher, “we should never make fun of the poor. Why not put a
coin in each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch?” The student did so and they both hid themselves behind the trees. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.
