The Crane and The Wolf
Once a wolf was lucky
to get hold of a nice dinner. He sat in his place
and started to eat. He did not want to share his food with anyone else. He was
eating so hurriedly that a small piece of bone got stuck in his throat.
He gurgled hard. He
tried to swallow. He tried to spit it out. But nothing worked out. The bone
won't move. He got afraid.
"If I can't take
the bone out, I can't eat. I will die of hunger", he thought sadly.
Suddenly he remembered
the crane who lived nearby. He thought, "The crane has a long neck. She
can reach and take out the bone". So off he went to the crane and said,
"Please take out the bone from my neck. I will pay good".
The crane took out the
bone and asked for her fees.
The wolf replied
"Aren't you happy that you put your head into my mouth and got it out
safely? Forget the fees."
MORAL :- Good for the
evil are fast forgotten.
