Paragraph=
A farmer had a brother in town who was a gardener, and who possessed a magnificent orchard full of the finest fruit trees. The farmer went to the town to visit his brother, whose skill and fame had spread far and wide ."Look, my brother," said the gardener. "I will give you an apple tree, the best from my garden and you, your children and your children's children shall enjoy it." Then the gardener called his workmen and ordered them to take up the tree and carry it to his brother's farm. They did so and asked the farmer where they should plant it .The farmer thought, "If I plant the tree on the hill, the wind might shake down the delicious fruit before it is ripe. If I plant it close to the road, passers-by might rob me of the luscious apples. "So, after he had thought the matter over, he planted the apple tree in a secluded, dark spot behind his barn, saying to himself, "Prying thieves will not think to look for it here. "But the tree bore neither fruit nor blossoms neither the first year nor the second-then the farmer sent for his brother, the gardener, and reproached him angrily, saying, "You have deceived me, and given me a barren tree instead of a fruitful one. For, behold, this is the third year and still it brings forth nothing but leaves!" The gardener, when he saw where the tree was planted, laughed and said, "You have planted the tree where it is exposed to cold, harsh winds and has neither sun nor warmth. How, then, could you expect the tree to blossom and bear fruit? You have planted the tree with a greedy and suspicious heart-how, then, could you expect to reap a rich and generous harvest.
