One day, he passed a rich man's house．Through the windows he saw many fine things and important visitors．’’How great that rich man must be!’ thought the stonecutter．He wished that he could be like him．
To his great surprise，he suddenly became the rich man．He began to enjoy all the good things in life．But then one day he saw a high official passing by，carried in a chair．Everyone had to bow before him．“How great that official is!” he thought．“1 wish that I could be like him.

He became the cloud．Everyone who didn't like clouds shouted at him．He soon found himself pushed away by the wind．“How great the wind is!” he thought．”I wish that I could be the wind!”
Then he became the wind，blowing the roofs of houses．After a while，he ran up against something that would not move—a huge stone．“How great that stone is!’ he thought” I wish I could be a stone!”
He became the stone．But as he stood there，he heard the sound of a hammer and felt himself being changed．“What could be greater that I become a stonecutter than a stone!” he thought．He looked down and saw far below him a stonecutter．
