The Shirt
Many, many years ago there lived a king. He was very rich and he had everything
he wanted. His country was strong and famous, but the king was not happy. So one
day he went to a wise old man and asked him how to become happy. The wise man
listened to him and then said, “There is very little happiness in this world, but I
know the way to find it.” “Show me the way to find it, then,” said the king. “It’s
very easy,” answered the old man. “You have only to put on the shirt of a happy
man.” The king thanked the old man and began to look for a happy man. He visited
most of the capitals of the world. He met kings, barons and other aristocrats, but
they were not happy. At last he came back to his own country. One day he saw a
poor farmer working in a field. He was singing and there was a happy look on his
face. The king came up to the farmer and said, “My good man, are you happy?”
“Very happy,” answered the farmer. “Well, then,” said the king, “sell me your
shirt.” “My shirt?” said the farmer in surprise. “I haven’t got a shirt. I hope to buy
a shirt soon.”
