Job's Comforter

For twelve years Job has won the bardic chair for his poems at the Eisteddford and the parlour of his little house if full of them. So full, that his wife Mary Anna decides it is time he called a halt. When Job goes away to try to win another chair, Mary Anna goes out and sells all the previous ones. Job and his friends return but Job is subdued because he did not win the contest. When Mary Anna comforts the troupe with welsh cakes and tes, she learns that this year's poem was about hersefl and Job and their love for each other. To make matters worse, she detects a subtle change in her husband who has become more gently and considerate since writting about her praises. Overcome with remorse, Mary Anna sends a neighbour out to buy back the chairs only to find out they have already been sold. After confessing to Job what she has done, who takes it well, Job's friends return with the chairs as it turns out they bought them back for him.
