The Elves and the Shoemaker
1 Once upon a time, there was a poor shoemaker who had no money left…
2 In the morning, when he went to his workbench…
3 Later that day, a rich woman came into the shop to buy some shoes…
4 Once again, the same thing happened…
5 That day, the shoemaker was able to buy enough leather for four pairs of shoes…
6 One evening not long before Christmas…
8 The next morning, the shoemaker said to his wife…
9 The shoemaker thought that was a very good idea…
10 By Christmas Eve, everything stood ready…
