The Farmer and his Sons

A farmer had two sons both of whom were not very ......... and avoided work if they could.
One day the father knew that he was dying and called his two sons to his bed ..........
He wanted his sons to pay as much ......... to the cultivation of the farm as he had done many years.
He told them that there was a ......... treasure in the land and they would have to look for it when he had gone.
He told them that they would find it in one of his 3 vine ......... but he didn't tell them which one it was.
The sons assured their father that they would work hard to ......... out the treasure.
As soon as their father had died and been ........., the sons took out all their farming tools and started to dig the land.
They worked really hard and dug every single ......... metre of their father's land.
However long they dug and however hard they worked, they ......... to find the smallest bit of treasure.
Clearly their father had been a wise man because all the work the sons had done on the land ensured that they had the best ......... for years.
