THE LION AND THE RABBIT MORAL STORY

There was a cruel lion in the forest. He was very greedy too. He tortured other animals because he was mighty. The animals could no longer bear his torture that they came to the lion and pleaded, "Oh lord of the jungle, we humbly request you consider our request.

We are willing to offer one animal a day for you. Please accept and leave us in peace." The lion also accepted this agreement. From then on, one animal was sent to the lion. Once it was the turn of a rabbit. That was a wise rabbit. He started to cook a plan on his way to the lion's den. The rabbit was late to reach the lion. The lion roared in anger, "You tiny fool, how long should I wait for your arrival? I am terribly hungry. Tell me, what made you late?"

The rabbit said in a feeble voice, "Your majesty, I was coming to your palace. On the way, I was pulled by another lion. I had to plead with him to spare me." The lion got angry and roared louder, "What, another lion in my forest! Show me!" The rabbit leads the lion to a deep ruined well. Once there, the rabbit said, "Have a peep, My Lord." The lion peeped into the well and mistook his reflection for another lion. He roared and it echoed. In his fury, the lion jumped into the well. That ended the life of a cruel king.

Moral: WICKEDNESS CAN BE ENDED BY WISDOM !!!
