Jonathan Swift, the famous English writer, and author of Gulliver's Travels, was not very-none none painting generous. He seldom gave anything to the servants of those who sent him presents. But once he received a lesson from a boy who very often carried things for him. One day the boy arrived with a heavy basket containing fish, fruit, and game. He knocked at the door, and the writer by chance opened it himself. ' Here, "said the boy," my master has sent you a basket full of things ". Swift, feeling displeased at the boy's rude manner, said to him: "Come here, my boy, and I will teach you how to deliver a massage a little more politely; come, imagine yourself Jonathan Swift, and I will be the boy. " Then taking off his hat very politely, and addressing himself to the boy, he said: "Sir, my master send you a little present, and begs you will do him the honour to accept it". "Oh, very well, my boy," replied the boy. "tell your master, I'm much obliged to him, and there is half a crown for yourself." Swift laughed heartily, and gave the boy a crown for his wit.
