I am currently reading this really Good book....theres this one chapter about these 2 women that live together...They both had small babies...one night while sleeping one of the women rolled onto her baby,smothering it...she awoke ,realizing what she had done she crept over and quietly swapped babies with the other sleeping mother....well,when morning came the mother of the living child awoke lying next to the dead child...she was shocked ,but immediately realized this was not her baby....after much fighting and arguing the two women where brought before the king....the king listened to both mothers argue whos child was the living and whose the dead....after a time the king called for his sword...and to the amazement of all observing he held the baby aloft and said i shall cleave the child in half and give each a proper share!!....the mother of the dead child said that, that was fair...the mother of the living child begged of the king to let the mother of the dead child have the baby ,just so as long as it where to survive and live...the king promptly declared the rightfull mother ........
