    priest was taking his tea he said
    " Have you any butter" She said she had none. "What have you in the churn" "Nothing" said she "Take off the lid and look inside" She obeyed and what had she but a churn of ants. She never made a bit of butter after that. That taught
    a lesson to her never to be selfish.
