1. I rested for a moment at the door of Anand Bhawan on Market Road, where coffee- drinkers and tiffin
eaters sat still at their tables uttering low moans on seeing me. I wanted to assure them "Don't mind me,
you keep hugging the cash box- you are a coward afraid even to breathe. Go on count the cash , if that is
your pleasure. I just want to watch ,that's all. If my tail trails down to the street , if I am blocking your
threshold, it is because ,I'm told , I am eleven feet tip to tail. I can't help it . I'm not out to kill - I'm too
full. I found a green pasture full of food on my way. I won't attack until I feel hungry again. Tigers attack
only when they feel hungry, unlike human beings who slaughter one another without purpose or hunger.
2. To the great delight of children ,schools were being hurriedly closed. Children of all ages and sizes
were running helter- skelter, screaming joyously."No school, no school. Tiger, tiger!". They were
shouting and laughing and even enjoying being scared. They seemed to welcome me. I felt like joining
them . So I bounded away from the restaurant door. I walked along with them at which they cried, "The
tiger is coming to eat us; let us get back to school !"
3. I followed them through their school gate while they ran up and shut themselves in the school hall
securely. I climbed up the steps of the school, saw an open door at the far end of a veranda, and walked
in. It happened to be the headmaster's room. I noticed a very dignified man jumping on the table and
heaving himself up into an attic. I walked in and flung myself on the cool floor, having a special liking for
cool stone floors.
4. As I drowsed ,I was aware of cautious steps and hushed voices all around. I was in no mood to bother
about anything .All I wanted was a little moment of sleep; the day light was very bright.
