The Happy Rabbi

An old rabbi is talking with one of his friends
and says with a warm smile, “I gladdened seven
hearts today.” “Seven hearts?” asks the friend.
“How did you do that?” The rabbi strokes his
beard and replies, “I performed three marriages.”
The friend looks at him quizically.
“Seven?” he asks. “I could understand six, but…”
“What do you think” says the rabbi,
“that I do this for free?”
