Tit for Tat / An English Poet and His Friend

An English poet was staying in Italy for the benefit of his health. During his stay he received an unpaid letter from one of his friend in England. The poet had to pay double postage to take delivery of the letter. But it contained nothing but the sentence “I am well”. He became very annoyed. He wanted to teach his friend a good lesson. So he procured a heavy stone. He packed it up in a fine box. Then he sent it to his friend with the words on it “carriage to be paid on delivery.” His friend thought that the contents of the parcel were valuable. So he paid the heavy charge for carrying. With a great hope in mind he opened the box. To his utter surprise he found nothing but an ordinary stone. Thus the poet taught his friend a good lesson.
