    Many stories are told of the Child Jesus and his Blessed Mother. One On occasion Our Lady was travelling along a road and she was carrying Jesus on her back.
    She asked a man to fix the Child on her back but he refused her.
    She came to another garden into which two men were working and asked one of them to fix the Child on her back.
    He did so and Our lady thanked him. When they had gone a little way she asked the child what would he do to the man that refused them.
    I shall give him a good wife so as she may convert him.
    To the good man
