CURSIVE - The Lion and The Rabbit

The lion had stopped hunting the animals of the forest and instead demanded that they send one animal to his den each day for him to eat. When it was the hare's turn, he came up with a plan. He tricked the lion into believing there was another lion in a nearby well by telling the angry lion this story. The hare led the lion to the well, where the lion mistook his own reflection for the other lion and jumped in, meeting his end. The hare used his intelligence to outwit the powerful lion and save himself and the other animals.

The Lion and The Rabbit

Once upon a time, there lived a


lion in the jungle. He was very
powerful and strong.

All the animals of the jungle


feared him. But slowly with time he
got tired of hunting. He called all
the animals of the forest and passes
an order.

"I would stop hunting down the


animals in the forest, and in
return, you would send one animal
a day to my den. Where I would
kill the animal and eat it as my
food". All the animals feared the
lion's anger started to obey this
order.

One day it was the hare's turn


to go into the lion's den. He was
very sad. On his way to the lion's
den, he came across an old well. He
looked into it it was very deep. As
he looked an idea struck him.
The lion was very angry that
no animal had come that day. The
hare slowly came towards the lion.
The lion roared "Why are you
late?". The hare humbly replied, "On
my way, I happened to meet
another lion in the jungle. He kept
claiming himself to be the king of
the jungle and wanted to eat me.

I got away with much difficulty


to give my life to you, your
majesty".The lion was pleased with
the hare. But the thought of another
lion in the jungle made him angry.
The lion roared " Do you know
where he lives?". The hare replied,
"yes, sir please come with me". The
hare took the lion to the old well.

He said, "Sir, that lion lives in


this well". The lion peeped into the
well, he mistook his reflection for
another lion.
