SWIFT AND HIS SERVANT
Jonathan Swift, a famous English writer, was one day travelling on
horseback with a servant. The weather was bad; it was raining and the roads
were muddy. In the evening the two men came to an inn. Before going to bed, Swift told his servant to clean his boots as
they were dirty. But the servant was very lazy and did not do what his master
had said. The next morning when Swift saw the dirty boots, he asked the servant
why he had not executed the order. ”The roads are muddy. What is the use of
cleaning the boots now? They will soon be dirty again,” the servant answered.
Swift didn’t say anything and soon told the servant to get ready because they
would start at once. But the servant looked very displeased and said that he
had not eaten his breakfast yet. Swift answered that they would go without any
breakfast. ”What is the use of eating
now? You will be hungry again”, he said.
