Answer and Explanation:

The rich man wished the horse that the horse would break its neck and die, that his wife would be trapped in a saddle so that he would not have to endure it and wished that his wife would be removed from the saddle so that he could cook and clean for him .

The poor man wanted health and food to satisfy his hunger. He had no other desire to do, because everything he really wanted was accomplished, so he decided to weigh in on boundless happiness for himself and his wife.

The rich man was selfish and made cruel requests that caused pain and discomfort to others. The poor man, on the other hand, was altruistic, made simple requests that brought happiness not only to him and did not harm anyone.
