Adrift at sea, Robinson Crusoe realizes
he is almost to the shore.
Robinson Crusoe is an excellent
swimmer and navigates rough
waves.
The waves pick up Crusoe two more
times, but he holds fast to a rock
and eventually makes it to shore.
The sea deposits Crusoe on land, but he
does not make it far before another wave
crashes over him.
Crusoe attempts to guide himself to the
shore by shooting his hands above the
water.
Pulled underwater once again, Crusoe
holds his breath as he waits for the
waves to cease.

Now, she thinks of Gretchen as a friend.

Answer:
A beggars dream
One day he was given a bucket of milk by a generous man. He brought the milk home and kept it beside him. He had a dream. He started his own dairy. He earned good money from his dairy. He purchased many more buffaloes and cows with his profit. Soon he was able to make a lot of money and built his own house. He was rich. He got married and got children. They played around making a noise. To make them quiet, he ran after them. He began to move his legs rapidly. In doing so, he hit the milk pot with one of his legs. The pot with milk broke. The milk was spilled all over the floor. He came to reality and realized daydream is good for nothing.
Moral: One bird in hand is better than two in the bush.
