A man wanted to sell Bibles. He went to the nearest book store and asked the proprietor¹: "I'd like to have 10 Bibles."

He was given the Bibles and the next day, the man came back to the store and asked for 20 more Bibles.

The proprietor exclaimed: "20 Bibles! What did you do with the 10 I gave you yesterday?"

"I sold them! the man said. So the proprietor gave him 20 more Bibles.

Two days later, the man was back asking for 40 Bibles.

"40 Bibles! the proprietor gasped². How do you sell so many Bibles?"

The man explained that he had a stuttering problem "I just go door to door and ask: Hi! Do you want to b-b-b-buy a B-B-B-Bible? And if you don't want to b-b-b-buy a B-B-B-Bible, I can always r-r-r-read it for you!"
