"The fairy has imposed upon us; she                        was in the right; possibly we should have                         been more unhappy with aiches, than we                         are at present. Believe me, friend, let                         us wish for nothing, and take things as                         it shall please God to send then,--in the                         mean time, let us sup upon our pudding,                         since that's all that remains to us of our                         wishes.” The husband thought his wife                         judged right; they supped merrily, and                         never gave themselves further trouble a-                         bout the things they had designed to                         wish for.
