EVIL WAYS are exposed when LOVE discover the hidden path.

There was once a business man who had a nice daughter. He was a very hard worker, so his business prospered, and he grew wealthy.
Because his wife passed away, he gave to his only daughter all the commodities that she needed. For himself he acquired a splendid suit and a gold ring with the logo of his company engraved on it, because his hard work brought to him so much blessings.
One NIGHT, however, ROBBERS broke into the company, and stole all the gold he had saved up and the ring he had made to honor his hard work.
Then the man said to his daughter, "You must marry soon. The world is full of WICKED MEN, and you should have a husband to protect you. Your future husband must be a wealthy man, because you deserve a good life having the splendid things that I can no longer buy for you."
"I don't care if the man is rich or poor," said the daughter, "as long as I LOVE HIM and HE LOVES ME."
"Don't say that." said the father impatiently, "if the RIGHT KIND of BRIDEGROOM COMES ALONG and ASKS FOR YOUR HAND, I will let him marry you."
Soon enough, a SUITABLE MAN who was dressed in finest clothes and wearing a huge gold ring came to the father and said, "I have seen your daughter," said the stranger, "and I want her to be my wife."
But the DAUGHTER DID NOT LOVE HIM as a bride-to-be ought to love her future bridegroom.
SHE DIDN'T TRUST HIM; and whenever she looked at him or thought about him A SHUDDER
RAN THROUGH HER.
The stranger came often to the father's company. Finally, he said to her, "You are engaged to me, and
yet you have never offer to visit me."
"I don't even know where your house is," the woman answered, FEELING a SUDDEN CHILL IN
HER HEART.
He said, "MY HOUSE IS IN THE DEPTHS OF THE FOREST."
"Then I could never find my way there," she said.
"Nonsense," the stranger said, "Next Sunday, YOU MUST COME AND SEE ME. I have already
invited some other guests. I WILL LEAVE A TRAIL OF ASHES, to let you FIND THE WAY."
Her father said to the stranger, "She will be there. "
The JOURNEY would take a day and a night ON FOOT. She felt terribly frightened, though she did
not why. To BE SURE OF FINDING HER WAY BACK, she FILLED HER POCKETS WITH
DRIED PEAS and BEANS to MARK HER PATH. At the entrance of the forest, she found the trail of ashes, like A THIN, GRAY THREAD, and followed it DEEP INTO the DARK WOODS. But every step or two, she tossed a few peas and beans to her right or left.
In the morning, which was almost as GLOOMY as MIDNIGHT, she saw a HOUSE set by itself in a small clearing. She knocked several times; when no one answered, she went in. She saw nobody; there
was a silence over all the rooms. Suddenly, a voice cried : "Turn Back. Run away! You have come to a robber's house this day." She looked up and saw that the voice had come from a bird cage that was hanging in a window.
