An Honest Woodcutter and a Beautiful Fairy

 

In a bygone era, there existed a destitute woodcutter dwelling in a diminutive hamlet. His sustenance hinged on procuring wood from a proximate forest and trading it in the market. One fateful day, while he was felling timber by a river, his axe inadvertently slipped from his grasp and plunged into the river, thus sinking out of sight.

 

The woodcutter was crestfallen, for he lacked the wherewithal to purchase another axe. Dejected and forlorn, he seated himself by the riverbank, pondering his quandary. Suddenly, the deity of the river manifested before him and inquired as to what had troubled him. The woodcutter recounted his tale of woe, informing the deity about his missing axe and his inability to work without it.

 

Sympathetic to the woodcutter's plight, the deity submerged into the water and reemerged with a golden axe in hand, proffering it to the woodcutter, asking him if it was his. The woodcutter, with unyielding integrity, declared that it was not his. The deity once again delved into the river, emerging this time with a silver axe, which he again presented to the woodcutter, but the woodcutter, with his uncompromising candor, once again denied it was his. Finally, the deity resurfaced with the woodcutter's own iron axe and asked him if it was his.

 

Overjoyed at the sight of his axe, the woodcutter unreservedly confirmed it was indeed his. The deity of the river, gratified by the woodcutter's unblemished honesty, rewarded him with all three axes.

 

The woodcutter returned to his village and commenced trading wood with his newly acquired axes, which expeditiously transformed his fortunes. Other woodcutters in the hamlet were incredulous at his rapid success and implored him to reveal his secret. The woodcutter, with his characteristic veracity, divulged the story of his divine encounter with the deity of the river and expounded how he was rewarded for his honesty, which helped him to attain prosperity.

 

From that day forth, the woodcutter's unimpeachable honesty became renowned throughout the village, and people began to repose their trust in him. He ascended to eminence in the community and lived a contented and prosperous life.

 

The story of the Honest Woodcutter expounds upon the age-old maxim that honesty is indeed the best policy. Even when confronted with difficulties, one ought to always choose to tell the truth and maintain fidelity to oneself and others. By doing so, one can gain the respect and trust of those around them, which can pave the way for success and happiness in life.

An Honest Woodcutter And The Beautiful Fairy


Once there lived a poor woodcutter. But he was very honest. He earned his livelihood by selling wood in the market.

Once, while cutting wood near a pond, the woodcutter's axe slipped from his grip and fell into the deep water. Being unable to swim or dive, he sat by the pond feeling disheartened. Suddenly, a beautiful fairy appeared before him, asking kindly why he was so sad and why he wasn't cutting wood.

With a heavy heart, the woodcutter explained that his axe had fallen into the pond, leaving him unable to work. In response, the fairy presented him with a golden axe, asking if it was his. However, the woodcutter shook his head, recognizing that it wasn't his axe.

The fairy then showed him a silver axe, inquiring if it was the one he had lost. Again, the woodcutter replied that it wasn't his axe, as his was made of iron. Finally, the fairy revealed the woodcutter's own lost axe, prompting him to joyfully confirm its identity.

Overwhelmed with gratitude, the woodcutter's happiness knew no bounds as the fairy rewarded him not only with his lost axe but also with the golden and silver axes. With newfound wealth, the woodcutter's life transformed, and he lived happily ever after.
