Little Claus and Big Claus
There were two men in a town, who both had the same name, both
were called Claus; but one of them owned four horses, and the
other only one. Now, in order to be able to tell one from the
other, people called the one who had four horses Big Claus, and
the one who had only one horse, Little Claus. Now we must hear
how these two got on, for it makes a regular story.
All the week through, Little Claus had to plough for Big Claus,
and lend him his one horse; and in return Big Claus used to help
him with all his four horses, but only once a week, and that was
on the Sunday. Hurrah! how Little Claus did crack his whip over
all the five horses, that were as good as his own for that one
day. The sun shone bright, and all the bells in the church tower
rang for church, and the people were dressed out and going past
with their hymn books under their arms to hear the clergyman
preach; and they looked at Little Claus ploughing away with five
horses , and he was so pleased, he cracked his whip again and
called out, "Hup, all my horses!"
