Once there was a young boy named
Henry.
Henry was very wise but no one
would listen to him because he was so young. Then one day Henry
dressed up like an old man and went to the fountain where all the
wise old men sat and philosophised. They were impressed by the ideas
and wisdom that the apparent stranger possessed and he soon had the
whole town coming to him with their problems. One day a woman was so
grateful that she threw her arms around him and in her excitement
pulled away Henry's disguise. After he had been exposed the people
were very angry with him for lying and they would not listen to him
anymore. Then Henry went to live in a swamp, away from the foolish
people. Occasionally someone who had herd of his wisdom would seek
him out, and he was always happy to help those who looked for him,
