El Maravilloso Mago de Oz
Capítulo 5, Página 8
“I
was
born
the
son
of
a
woodman
who
chopped
down
trees
in
the
forest
and
sold
the
wood
for
a
living.
When
I
grew
up,
I
too
became
a
wood-chopper,
and
after
my
father
died
I
took
care
of
my
old
mother
as
long
as
she
lived.
Then
I
made
up
my
mind
that
instead
of
living
alone
I
would
marry,
so
that
I
might
not
become
lonely.
“There
was
one
of
the
Munchkin
girls
who
was
so
beautiful
that
I
soon
grew
to
love
her
with
all
my
heart.
She,
on
her
part,
promised
to
marry
me
as
soon
as
I
could
earn
enough
money
to
build
a
better
house
for
her;
so
I
set
to
work
harder
than
ever.
But
the
girl
lived
with
an
old
woman
who
did
not
want
her
to
marry
anyone,
for
she
was
so
lazy
she
wished
the
girl
to
remain
with
her
and
do
the
cooking
and
the
housework.
So
the
old
woman
went
to
the
Wicked
Witch
of
the
East,
and
promised
her
two
sheep
and
a
cow
if
she
would
prevent
the
marriage.
Thereupon
the
Wicked
Witch
enchanted
my
axe,
and
when
I
was
chopping
away
at
my
best
one
day,
for
I
was
anxious
to
get
the
new
house
and
my
wife
as
soon
as
possible,
the
axe
slipped
all
at
once
and
cut
off
my
left
leg.
“This
at
first
seemed
a
great
misfortune,
for
I
knew
a
one-legged
man
could
not
do
very
well
as
a
wood-chopper.
So
I
went
to
a
tinsmith
and
had
him
make
me
a
new
leg
out
of
tin.
The
leg
worked
very
well,
once
I
was
used
to
it.
But
my
action
angered
the
Wicked
Witch
of
the
East,
for
she
had
promised
the
old
woman
I
should
not
marry
the
pretty
Munchkin
girl.
When
I
began
chopping
again,
my
axe
slipped
and
cut
off
my
right
leg.
Again
I
went
to
the
tinsmith,
and
again
he
made
me
a
leg
out
of
tin.
After
this
the
enchanted
axe
cut
off
my
arms,
one
after
the
other;
but,
nothing
daunted,
I
had
them
replaced
with
tin
ones.
The
Wicked
Witch
then
made
the
axe
slip
and
cut
off
my
head,
and
at
first
I
thought
that
was
the
end
of
me.
But
the
tinsmith
happened
to
come
along,
and
he
made
me
a
new
head
out
of
tin.
“I
thought
I
had
beaten
the
Wicked
Witch
then,
and
I
worked
harder
than
ever;
but
I
little
knew
how
cruel
my
enemy
could
be.
She
thought
of
a
new
way
to
kill
my
love
for
the
beautiful
Munchkin
maiden,
and
made
my
axe
slip
again,
so
that
it
cut
right
through
my
body,
splitting
me
into
two
halves.
Once
more
the
tinsmith
came
to
my
help
and
made
me
a
body
of
tin,
fastening
my
tin
arms
and
legs
and
head
to
it,
by
means
of
joints,
so
that
I
could
move
around
as
well
as
ever.
But,
alas!
I
had
now
no
heart,
so
that
I
lost
all
my
love
for
the
Munchkin
girl,
and
did
not
care
whether
I
married
her
or
not.
I
suppose
she
is
still
living
with
the
old
woman,
waiting
for
me
to
come
after
her.
“My
body
shone
so
brightly
in
the
sun
that
I
felt
very
proud
of
it
and
it
did
not
matter
now
if
my
axe
slipped,
for
it
could
not
cut
me.
There
was
only
one
danger—that
my
joints
would
rust;
but
I
kept
an
oil-can
in
my
cottage
and
took
care
to
oil
myself
whenever
I
needed
it.
However,
there
came
a
day
when
I
forgot
to
do
this,
and,
being
caught
in
a
rainstorm,
before
I
thought
of
the
danger
my
joints
had
rusted,
and
I
was
left
to
stand
in
the
woods
until
you
came
to
help
me.
It
was
a
terrible
thing
to
undergo,
but
during
the
year
I
stood
there
I
had
time
to
think
that
the
greatest
loss
I
had
known
was
the
loss
of
my
heart.
While
I
was
in
love
I
was
the
happiest
man
on
earth;
but
no
one
can
love
who
has
not
a
heart,
and
so
I
am
resolved
to
ask
Oz
to
give
me
one.
If
he
does,
I
will
go
back
to
the
Munchkin
maiden
and
marry
her.”
Both
Dorothy
and
the
Scarecrow
had
been
greatly
interested
in
the
story
of
the
Tin
Woodman,
and
now
they
knew
why
he
was
so
anxious
to
get
a
new
heart.
