Gladdened Hearts

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?
