    A story.
    There was once a man who was coming from a town when he saw a camp on the side of the road. He went into the camp. After a while a beautiful lady came to him and told him not to take anything from the people of the camp. They were forcing him to drink tea, but he would not take anything. About midnight he became very hungry and they gave him something to eat, When he had enough eaten he went home and he died the next day.
