The student 23 the professor, saying, “Let’s play the man a(n) 24 : we will hide his shoes, and we stay behind those bushes, and wait to see his 25 when he cannot find them.”
“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never 26 ourselves at the expense of the poor.You are 27 , and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by means of helping the poor man.Put a 28 into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the 29 affects him.”
The student did so, 30 they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by.

“Are you not much better pleased than if you had played your 39 trick?” The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.I feel now the 40 of those words, which I never understood before: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
