Once upon a time there was a Goose who had beautiful golden feathers. Not far away from this Goose lived a very, very poor woman who had two daughters. The Goose saw that they had a hard time getting along and said to himself:“If I give them one after another of my golden feathers, the mother can sell them, and with the money they bring she and her daughters can then live in comfort.”So away the Goose flew to the poor woman’s house. Seeing the Goose, the woman said:“Why do you come here? We have nothing to give you.”“But I have something to give you,” said the Goose. “I will give you my feathers, one by one, and you can sell them for enough money so that you and your daughters can live in comfort.”So saying this the Goose gave her one of his feathers, and then flew away. From time to time he came back, each time leaving another feather. The mother and her daughters sold the beautiful feathers for enough money to keep them in comfort. But one day the mother said to her daughters:“Let us not trust this Goose. Some day he may fly away and never come back. Then we should be poor again. Let us get all of his feathers the very next time he comes.”The daughters said: “This will hurt the Goose. We will not do such a thing.”But the mother was greedy.
