The Lilac Fairy Book

By: Lang, Andrew

In the land of Erin there dwelt long ago a wid-ow who had an only son. He was a clever boy, so she saved up enough money to send him to school, and, as soon as he was old enough, to ap-prentice him to any trade that he would choose. But when the time came, he said he would not be bound to any trade, and that he meant to be a thief.Now his mother was very sorrowful when she heard of this, but she knew quite well that if she tried to stop his having his own way he would only grow more determined to get it. So all the answer she made was that the end of thieves was hanging at the bridge of Dublin, and then she left him alone, hoping that when he was older he might become more sensible.
