                  ong, long ago, there was a king who was very vain. He liked to wear

            L only new and beautiful clothes. He did not care about his soldiers or
            his servants. He only cared about his clothes.


            Two crooks heard about the vain king.
               "Hmm, the king only cares about new and beautiful clothes."
               "He is so vain. Let's trick him!"
               "How?"
             "Let's pretend to sew some new clothes for the king. We will say that the clothes are

            invisible only to foolish people."
