  1. Story
    Once upon a time a begger man met two priests and he asked them for help
    one of them gave him one shilling, and he said, " God bless you Father." Then the other priest gave him 2/6 and he said " God almighty bless you Father" The first priest said "What is the difference between God bless you, and God almighty bless you."
    " One and sixpence Father" said the begger.
