Lean Lisa was of a very different way of thinking from lazy Harryand fat Trina, who never let anything disturb their peace. She scouredeverything with ashes, from morning till evening, and burdened her husband, Long Laurence, with so much work that he had heavier weights to carry than an asswith three sacks. It was, however, all to no purpose, they had nothing and came to nothing.    One night as she lay in bed, and could hardly move one limb for weariness, she still did not allow her thoughts to go to sleep. She thrust her elbows into her husband's side, and said, "Listen, Lenz, to what I have been thinking: if I were to find one florin and one was given to me, I would borrow another to put to them, and thou too shouldst give me another, and then as soon as I had got the four florins together, I would buy a young cow."    This pleased the husband right well. "It is true," said he, "that I do not know where I am to get the florin which thou wantest as a gift from me; but, if thou canst get the money together, and canst buy a cow with it, thou wiltdo well to carry out thy project. I shall be glad," he added, "if the cow has a calfarms in one hand, and with the other he pressed down her head into the pillow, let her scold, and held her until she fell asleep for very weariness. Whether she continued to wranglewhen she awoke next morning, or whether she went out to look for the florin which she wanted to find, that I know not.
