   "Well, Abraham", said the Gaduidhe then, "You have your trade well learned now. I will give you a ferkin of gold to carry home to your mother." The Guduidhe gave him the ferkin of gold and Abraham took it home to his mother.

When the rich man heard that Abraham was really a thief he said, "I'll give you one chance of your life. If you can't tell me what is between these two plates on the table you will be put to death". Abraham thought and thought but it was no use. At last he said to the rich man, "Well as long as the fox is going he is caught by the tail at last!" The gentleman raised one of the plates and what was between the two plates but a fox's tail. "Go home now", said the rich man to Abraham, "and if you don't live happily, that I may die!"
