There was once a very poor couple. The woman had long, beautiful hair of which she was very fond, so for Christmas, the man bought her a beautiful comb; to afford it, he had to sell his watch, which he prized very highly. The woman knew he loved this watch, so she bought him a beautiful new chain for it, but to afford it, she had to cut off and sell all her hair.
