Sophie Has A Brainwave - 3

     So Mother Adams and Sophie took turns telling jokes while standing on a table in the inn for money until they had collected all the money they needed to pay for their visit and a little extra.  They paid their tithing of course.
     When they all reached home Sophie was married or sealed with the really handsome and funny Egbert in the Temple so they could be together forever.  They were so happy.
     The crooks were caught.
     Sophie and Egbert named the foundling Ansel and adopted him forthwith.  Everyone played the Orange Game at a party for Ansel, you know the game where you stand in a line and pass an orange from chin to chin, under your chin and try to keep it from falling onto the floor.
     Soon it came time for Ansel's first lesson and to teach him to write, Sophie arranged a special activity.  They time-travelled back to the time of King Alfonso The Wise of Castile, Leon and Galicia to meet him and his court.  He showed them all the poetry he had written and he taught Ansel how to write.
     They travelled back through time, just in time to make it to Sophie's appointment with the naturopathic doctor about her sore toe.  The naturopathic doctor told them to dance to get over it, as it needed more exercise.
     So as soon as they reached home, Sophie and Ansel danced a dance together, in which Ansel danced out a complicated riddle, and Sophie danced the answer with her sore toe.  After that they had scones and jam and peppermint herb tea and followed it up with another dance where they danced that they were riding horses and stamped out the rhythm of the horses' hooves.
