Resumer Honesty Is the Best Policy A woodman was once working on the bank of a deep river. Suddenly his axe slipped from his hand and fell into the water. "Oh! I have lost my axe," he cried. "What shall I do? The water is very deep and I am afraid to dive into it. What shall I do? Who can help me?" Mercury heard the poor man's cries and appeared before him. "What is the matter, poor woodman?" he asked. "What has happened that you are so sad and unhappy?" Mercury listened to the man's story and then said: "Perhaps I can help you". He dived into the river and brought up a golden axe. "Is this yours?" he asked. "No, that is not mine," was the answer. Mercury dived a second time and this time brought up a silver axe. "Is this yours?" he asked. Again the answer was "No". So Mercury dived a third time and this time brought up the very axe that the woodman had lost. "That is my axe," cried the man. "Yes, that is my own good axe. Now I can work again." faceți vă rog rezumatul urgentttttt​
