        A wizard(男巫)gave a young Queen a magic box. The box would bring happiness to the whole country whenever it was opened in a place full of the spirit of generosity(慷慨).

    The Queen travelled all over the country, looking for the most generous people. If she found them all, she would open the magic box. However, nothing special happened. How upset she felt!

    One day when the Queen decided to return to her palace, she saw a poor little boy begging(乞讨). She would like to give the boy some money, but she didn't have any with her.
