The jew among thorns

Once lived a boy who served a rich man for three years. The boy decided to leave service and asked his master to give him what he had earned. Unfortunately he got only three farthings, a farthing per year. He wandered the woods where he stumbled upon a dwarf. He made a deal with it. He gave the dwarf his three coins and the dwarf gave him in return a magical fiddle which would make everyone dance. Later the boy met a Jew and decided to try the fiddle. He made the Jew dance although he was standing near thorn bushes. The Jew could not deny. The fiddle was magical after all. However if the boy was willing to let him stop, he would give him gold in return. The servant agreed. But the Jew swore to take his revenge. Read "The Jew among Thorns" to find out what followed.
