The Parable

 Rosemary is a girl about 21 years of page for several months she has been enganged to a young man named. Let's call him Geoffrey. The problem she faces is that between her and her betrohed there lies a river. No ordinary never, mind you but a deep, wide river infested with hungry crocodiles.
 Rosemary ponders how she can cross the river. She thinks of a man she knows who has a boat. We'll call him Sinbad. So, ahe approaches Sinbad. Asking him to take her across. He replies " Yes, I'll take you across if you'll spend the night with me." Shocked at this offer, she turns to another acquaintance, a certain Frederick. And tells him her story. Frederick responds by saying " Yes, Rosemary, understand your problem. But it's your problem, Not mine." Rosemary decides to return ti Sinbad, spend the night with him. And in the morning he takes her across the river.
 Her reunion with Geoffreyis warm. But on the evening before they are to be married. Rosemary feels compelled to tell Geoffrey how she succesed in getting across the river. Geoffrey responds by saying " I wouldn't marry you if you were the las women in the earth."
 Finally, at her wits end. Rosemary turns to our last character. Dennis listen to her story and says " Well, Rosemary. I don't love you but I will marry you." And that's all we know of the story
