Two young women were lying down looking at the stars and one of them said, "I will have that bright star." The other said, "I will have that star which is not so bright." They went to sleep, they were
sent for and awoke lying down far up in the sky. When they awoke they found that the bright star was an old man and the less bright star a young man. Presently the wife of the former disliked her husband. Then they slept, and when they awoke again they were back in their own house.
