Cure a Lean Purse

Ark had turned to the class with a smile. Does any man here have a lean purse? First, they looked amused then they laughed. Lastly, they waved their purses and jest. Now I shall tell thee the first remedy I learned to cure a lean purse. Do exactly as I have suggested to the egg merchant. For every ten coins thou placest within thy purse, take out for use, but nine. Thy purse will start to fatten at once, and its increasing weight will feel good in thy hand and bring satisfaction to thy soul. Deride not what I say because of its simplicity. Truth is always simple.
