The peasants laughed and made fun of him. The monk said to them:<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;So, you&#039;ve never had stone broth?&quot; &quot;.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0They answered him:<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;We would like to see that. &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0This was what the monk wanted to hear. He washed the stone and said:<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;If you could lend me a pot?&quot; &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0They gave him the pot. He filled it with water and put the stone at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;Now if you let me put the pot on the fire.&quot; &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0When the water began to boil, he said:<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWith a little bacon, the soup would be better. &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0The peasants went to get a piece of bacon. The dumbfounded peasants looked at the boiling soup. The monk tasted the soup, and said:<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cShe&#039;s a little bland. It lacks a little salt. &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>They gave him salt. He salted, tasted and said:<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cNow if we added a heart of cabbage, even the angels would eat it. &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0The hostess went to the garden and brought back two cabbages. The monk washed them and put them in the pot. When the cabbages were boiling he said:<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;With a small piece of smoked sausage, that would be perfect ...&quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0They gave him a little sausage, which he put in the pot and while the soup was finishing cooking, he went to get a piece of bread from his bag and got ready to sit down at the table. The soup smelled so good it was a treat. He ate all the soup and licked his lips. The pot was empty, and only the stone remained. The peasants, who never took their eyes off him, asked him:<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;Monsieur l&#039;Abb\u00e9, then this pebble?&quot; &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0The monk answered them:<\/p>\n\n<p>&quot;The pebble, I&#039;ll wash it, and take it away for another time.&quot; &quot;<\/p>\n\n<p>And in this way the monk ate, wherever people would not give him anything.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iberian Mythology Wiki Here is the famous story of stone soup.
