3) The old shed

Nasreddin had an old shed. It had no windows, so it was very dark, and it was full of old things. One day Nasreddin went into this shed to get a ladder, but slipped on something and fell against a big garden fork. The fork hit him on the head and knocked him down. Then it fell on top of him and hit him hard on the left leg. The end of the fork then went into his long beard. He fought with the fork fiercely, and at last threw it off him, jumped up and ran out of the shed. He was very angry. He had an old sword under his bed, and he now ran and got this. Then he ran back to the shed, opened the door suddenly and shouted in a terrible voice, “All right, come out and fight, you and all the other forks in the world! I’m not afraid of you!”

What did Nasreddin have? What was it like inside? Why was it dark? What happened one day? Why did Nasreddin go into the shed? What did he do inside the shed? What did the fork do? What did it do after that? What did the ends of the fork do? What did Nasreddin do? How did he feel? What did he have under his bed? What did he do now? What did he shout?
