The King's Brother
A poor man, presenting himself before the King of Spain,asked his charity, telling him that he was his brother. Theking desiring to know how he claimed kindred to him, the poorfellow replied,“We are all descended from one common fatherand mother—viz., Adam and Eve.” Upon which the kinggave him a little copper piece of money. The poor man beganto bemoan himself, saying,“Is it possible that your Majestyshould give no more than this to your brother?”“Away,away,”replies the king;“if all the brothers you have in theworld give you as much as I have done, you'll be richer than Iam.”
一個窮漢去見西班牙國王,說自己是他的兄弟,求他施恩周濟。國王想知道他何以攀認親戚,窮漢回答說,“我們有共同的'祖先——亞當和夏娃。”聽了這話,國王就給了他一個小銅子兒。于是窮人開始叫屈,說:“難道您國王陛下就給兄弟這么一點點錢嗎?”“走開,快走,”國王回答,“如果世界上你所有的兄弟們都像我這樣給你一個銅板,你就比我還有錢了。”
