Cast:

5 farmers (men and women).

Scene One

(the narrator, the soldier, the woman)

Narrator: A soldier is coming home to his family after a big war. He is hungry but has no food to eat.

Soldier: I have no food to eat and I'm so hungry I can eat stones. (The soldier picks up a stone.)

Narrator: Now the soldier sees a small house. There is a tidy garden near it. A woman is watering the flowers in the garden.

Soldier: Good morning, lady. You have a nice garden. Let me rest here, please.

Woman: I can let you rest here but I can't feed you. There's no food in the house.

Soldier: No food? That is very sad. But I can help you. I have a magic stone and I can make some very good soup from it. Give me a pot of hot water, please.

Narrator: Now the woman gives him a pot of hot water. Our soldier puts a stone in the pot and begins to cook.

Scene Two

(the narrator, the soldier, the woman)

Soldier: The soup is nearly ready. Can you give me some beans to put them in the pot?

Woman: Yes, I have some beans. Here they are. Put them in the pot.

Narrator: So, the beans go into the pot too.

Soldier: The soup is nearly ready. Can you give me some meat to put it in the pot?

Farmer 4: He's new here.

Farmer 5: What is he doing?

Soldier: You, good men and good women, can you give me some food to make the soup better? (The men and women go away, then come back.)

Farmer 1: Here is salt¹.

Farmer 2: Here are some peas².
