The Lion and The Mouse

 

One day a lion was sleeping in a cave. A mouse was playing nearby. The lion caught hold of the mouse. He became so angry that he wanted to kill the mouse. The mouse became very much frightened. But he did not lose heart. He said to the lion, “O king of the jungle, I am a very tiny creature. I made a big mistake, please forgive me this time. I may be of some help to you any time.” Hearing this the lion smiled and let the mouse go. Days, months, and years passed by. One night the mouse heard the roar of a lion. The mouse went to the place from where the sound was coming. Having reached there he saw the lion trapped in a hunter’s net. The net was too strong for the lion to break. The mouse gave his identity and requested him not to make any sound. The mouse began to cut the rope with his sharp teeth. The lion was freed before dawn and expressed his gratitude to the mouse.

Do Not Neglect the Tiny Creatures


Once a lion was sleeping in a cave. At that time a mouse fell upon its body playing. The lion caught it and it began to tremble with fear. The lion wanted to kill the mouse. The mouse begged pardon to the lion. It said that it would help the lion in the future. At this, the lion laughed at the mouse and let it go. After some time, the lion fell into a trap and began to shout with fear. Listening to the shout, the mouse came to save the lion. The mouse cut the ropes of the net and the lion was saved. The lion became grateful to the mouse. The lion realized that every tiny creature might come to our assistance. From then the lion was kind-hearted to the tiny creatures.

A Small Creature Saves the Life of a Lion


Once upon a time, there lived a lion in a forest. One day the lion was sleeping in its den. Suddenly a mouse came here. It did not notice the sleeping lion. It was running about and playing happily. By chance, it ran over the face of the lion. It awoke the lion and at this, the lion grew very angry. At this, the lion became angry and started roaring with great anger. The mouse got frightened and started trembling. The lion said, “How dare you disturb me that small evil? I will kill you.” The mouse fell in great danger. It begged its life to the lion and also promised to help the lion in the future if he needed it. Hearing this, the lion laughed at him. He said, “How will a small creature like you help me?” He made fun of the mouse and relieved him. After a few days later a hunter set a trap and the lion was caught in the trap. The lion tried his best to escape from it but failed. He started shouting for getting help. At that time the mouse was also near the jungle. When he heard the voice of the lion he understood that the lion was in danger. It came to the near of the lion and noticed the situation. Observing that, the mouse decided to escape the lion from danger. It started to cut off the net with its sharp teeth. After some time, the lion was to get out of the trap and thanked the mouse for saving his life. So nobody should neglect anyone treating as a small creature.
