　　Miserliness(吝啬)was passing by Love in a big boat．Love said：“Miserliness, can you take me with you?”Miserliness answered：“No, I can’t．There are a lot of silver(银子)in my boat．There is no place for you here．”

　　Love decided to ask Vanity(虚荣)who was also passing by in a beautiful bo at．“Vanity, please help me!”“I can’t help you, Love．You are all wet．You’ll make my boat dirty,”Vanity said．

　　Sadness was close by, so Love asked for help,“Sadness, let me go with you．”“Oh…Love, I am so sad that I need to be alone by myself!”

　　Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear Love call her．

　　Suddenly, there was a voice,“Love, I will take you．”It was an old woman．Love felt so lucky that he even forgot to ask for her name．When they got to dry land, the old woman went away．Love asked Knowledge, another old woman,“Who helped me?”
