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.
