The Apple

Recently I was reading a book called “Wit and wisdom of good pope John 23^rd. as we all know that he was a Pope with humor. I want to share a joke which I read in his book and so joke goes like this; once at a banquet the Apostolic Nuncio to France found himself seated next to an elegant lady in a dress cut over generously low in the neck. When dessert was served, he invited her to take the apple which he held out to her. Since the lady showed surprise at this gesture, Msgr. Roncalli added: “do take it , Madam, please do. It was only after Eve ate the apple that she became aware of how little she had on!”
