come to lend him a hand.
It was not long before a rider appeared, but the farmer’s heart sank when he recognized him. It was
the rich man who lived in a big ranch nearby. The farmer would dared ask another farmer to help, or any
poor man who come along the road, but he could not ask a favor of so great a man.
However, as soon as the man came near he got off his horse saying,” I see you’ve had bad luck, friend.
How good it is that I’m here just at the right time”. He took one end of the sack, the farmer the other, and
between them they lifted it up on the carabao.
“Sir”, asked the farmer, “how can I pay you?”
“Easily enough,” the great man replied. “When you see anyone else in trouble, do the same for him.”
