By the time the doctor arrived at the farmhouse, things had   2to a point where the doctor asked the husband to help him by holding a gas lantern up high in order to   3the room.

Before long, the   4mother delivered a healthy baby boy. As the father   5the lantern, the doctor shouted an   6to keep the lantern high: “We’re not done yet.”   7, a second child appeared on the   8, a healthy baby girl. Shaken by the unexpected arrival of twins, the father heard the doctor say once again, “We can’t   9now. It looks as if it’s going to be triplets (三胞胎).” To which the   10father, still holding the lantern high, replied, “Do you think it’s the light that’s   11them?”
