The
Lion
and
the
Mouse
Once when a Lion was asleep a little Mouse began
•
running up and down upon him; this soon wakened
the Lion, who placed his huge paw upon him, and
opened his big jaws to swallow him.
"Pardon, O King," cried the little Mouse: "forgive me
this time, I shall never forget it: who knows but
what I may be able to do you a turn some of these
days?"
The Lion was so tickled at the idea of the Mouse
being able to help him, that he lifted up his paw and
let him go.
Some time after the Lion was caught in a trap, and
the hunters who desired to carry him alive to the
King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of
a wagon to carry him on.
Just then the little Mouse happened to pass by, and
seeing the sad plight in which the Lion was, went up
to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bound
the King of the Beasts.
"Was I not right?" said the little Mouse.
•
"Little friends may prove great friends."
