"Would you know it if you were to see it? I found an ax in the river. It may be yours. Is this it?" he asked, holding out a gold ax.
"No," answered the woodman,"that is not my ax."
"I found another," said the man. "This must be the one," and he held out a silver ax.
"No, that is not mine," replied the woodman. "I am too poor a man to own such an ax as that."
"Well, here is another ax that I found. Is this yours?" The fairy held out an old ax of steel.
"That is mine, oh, that is mine!" cried the woodman. The fairy, said, "All three of the axes are yours. I arn glad to make you a present of the gold ax and the silver ax. Let me have your hand. I am happy to meet an honest man."

"I have an ax here. Is it yours?"
"That is the very one," said the woodman. "Thank you fairy, and he reached out his hand to take the gold ax.
