Text 1
A young
student was walking in the woods when he heard a small voice calling him. He
looked all around, but could not see anyone. The voice called out again, and
appear to come from the roots of an enormous oak tree. There, the student found
a bottle, in which there was a tiny man who begged, “Let me out”.
So the
student removed the cork, and a cloud of smoke emerged and grew into a
frightening giant.
“I am a
genie,” said the giant, and I was imprisoned in the bottle by magician. But now
that I am freed, prepare to meet your end”.
“Wait a
minute,” said the young man. I don’t believe one word you have said. A giant of
your size could not have really come out of that little bottle. You could never
forget into it”.
“Of
course I can,” said the genie, “I’ll prove it to you”. As soon as the genie
returned to the bottle, the young man replaced the cork. The next time, in
order to get free, the spirit had to make a bargain with the student: not only
would it refrain from killing him, but it had also to give him a dagger which
turned into gold everything it touched, and healed all wounds. And afterwards,
thanks to that magic dagger, the student became a rich and famous doctor . …
