The Lion and The Mouse

Once when a lion was asleep, a little mouse began running up and down upon him; this soon

awoke the lion, who placed his huge paw upon him, and open his big jaws to swallow him.

“Pardon, O king,” cried the little mouse, “Forgive me this time, I shall never forget it;

perhaps I may be able to do you a good turn some of these days.”

The lion was so tickled at the idea of the mouse being able to help him. Then, he lifted

up his paw and let him go.

Sometime after, the lion was caught in a trap. Some hunters, who wanted to carry him

alive to the King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a wagon to carry him in. Just

then, the little mouse happened to pass by and see the sad plight in which the lion was. The

little mouse went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bounded the king of the

beasts. Soon after the little mouse had finished gnawing away the ropes, he asked the lion to

run away.
