Stan got into bed that night and pulled up the quilt． Then he remembered his grandson's question． Aha! His beard was under the quilt． But wait． Did that feel right？
He lift his beard from under the quilt and put it above it． This also didn't feel right． So he put the beard under the quilt again． But he soon felt it would be better if it were out． The beard went in and out﹣first under the quilt， then over it， under， over， all night long．
Stan spent a sleepless night． In the morning， he was so tired and unhappy that he cut his long beard right off!
