Change the form of narrative style by using indirect speeches. "What is your occupation?" asked the king. "I do not work at all", said the stranger. "I wander about God's kingdom and wherever He places me, there I remain for the day". Seeing the stranger's trust in God, the king felt kindly towards him and said, "Will you come and live in my palace?" The stranger asked, "What I shall do there!" "You'll water my trees and flower and in exchange you will get food and clothing," said the king.
