Three rich ladies met every day by a river.They sat there and talked the whole day.One the three ladies quarreled.One of them,“Look,how white and beautiful my hands are!” Another one said,“My hands are more beautiful.” The third one said,“Mine are the most beautiful ones.” An old woman beggar came up to them.“Beautiful ladies,” she said,“I’m old and can’t work.I’m hungry.Please give me something go eat.”
But the three ladies gave her nothing.They only asked,“Tell me,old woman,which of us has the most beautiful hands?”
A peasant woman was also sitting by the river.She was poor and her hands were rough because of hard work.The old woman beggar came up to her and said,“I’m hungry.Please give me something go eat.” The peasant woman took out her only cake and gave her a half.
The old woman ate it and drank some water.Then she took the peasant woman by the hand,brought her before the rich ladies and said,“Now,I shall tell you whose hands are the most beautiful.The hands of the poor peasant woman are rough because of work,but they give us food; they are far more beautiful than yours which have never done anything.”
