Explanation:

One day a woodcutter was cutting wood on the bank of a river in a dense forest. He used to collect wood daily from the forest and sell it for his living. By chance his axe slipped from his hands and fell into the deep waters of the river. It was quite impossible to take out the axe from there as the water was deep and flowed fast. So he sat on the bank of the river and started weeping as the only source of his living was gone.

God Mercury-The water-god, took pity on his condition and appeared before him. He asked him the cause of his worry. The woodcutter told him the story of his woe. The god took pity on him. He dived into the water and got out a glittering golden axe and presented it to the woodcutter. He refused to take it saying that his was an ordinary axe. How could he take the golden axe? The god disappeared again and got out a silver axe, this time. The woodcutter again refused to take this axe too saying this was not his axe. Now the god dived into the water a third time and got out his own iron axe. The woodcutter’s joy knew no bounds. He accepted the axe gladly and thanked the god with folded hands. The god was very happy to see the honesty of the woodcutter. As reward for his honesty, the god gave the other two axes, one golden and the other silver, to the woodcutter as a reward for his honesty.

Thus the woodcutter was rewarded for his honesty so much that he left the present job of a woodcutter and became a rich man.
