A rich merchant once lost his purse at the market place .A poor old woman found the purse. She opened it and saw that it had a hundred gold coins.

Just as she was wondering whose purse it was, She heard the merchant shout,'' A reward ! I will give a reward to anyone who finds my purse.''

The old woman gave the purse to the merchant.'Here is your purse,'she said.'Will you give my reward?'

'Reward?' said the merchant,greedly counting his gold coins.' My purse had 200 pics of gold.U have already stolen more than the reward.Go away!

'I am poor but honest,'said the old woman.'I will go to the queen's palace and ask for help'.
