LEGEND
Long time ago there lived a knight. The
knight liked alcohol and he often hurt girls (and then he locked them in
Samson’s Tower where they died). He
could not find a new girl for a long time. One day he devised a terrible plan:
He found a nice girl Anna. Anna didn’t
know that the knight was dangerous, and the knight kidnapped her. She was
afraid but he told her: ”I want to marry you. “ It was a lie. Anna cried. The
knight was angry, so he closed her in Samson’s tower … BUT his mistake was that
he also went in the tower, slammed the door (that is what angry people
sometimes do), and he was closed in the tower! He died there and that was
punishment for his bad life. THE END
