sleep beside her. And in the morning when I tried to nurse my son, he was dead! “But when I looked
more closely in the morning light, I saw that it wasn’t my son at all.” Then the other woman interrupted,
“It certainly was your son, and the living child is mine. “ “No,” the first woman said, the dead one is
yours and the living one is mine.” And so they argued back and forth before the king. Then the king
said “Let’s get the facts straight.” Both of you claim the living child is yours, each says that the dead
belongs to the other. All right, bring me my sword,” so a sword was brought to the king then he said,
“Cut the living child into two and give half to each of these women.” Then the woman who really was

child, please do not kill him!” But the other woman said “All right he will be neither yours nor mine,
