The Lion and the Mouse
Once when a Lion was asleep a little Mouse began running up and down
on his face; 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 I may be able to do
you a turn someday?" 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.
Sometime after the Lion was caught in a net, 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 Lion in the net she went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bound
the King of the Beasts, and then she said, "Was I not right?"
