The story of a slave and a lion shows that love begets love and one good turn deserves another. The strong and the weak, the rich and the poor need each other’s help. Therefore, cooperation is of great importance.
Once there was a slave. He was very hardworking. Unfortunately, his master was very cruel. The slave worked day and night, but his master never got pleased with his work. He did not give the slave enough food. Besides, the slave was abused and punished from time to time. He was upset. He could not bear this any longer. One day he decided to run away to some other place. He passed through a jungle. He was too hungry and tired to walk. He lay down and dozed off.
Suddenly he heard a noise. He saw a lion lying down on the ground. He was moaning with extreme pain. His paw was badly swollen as a thorn had run into it. The slave took pity on the lion and plucked out the thorn from his paw. The lion felt a great relief. Thanking the slave, the lion went away. After a couple of months, the master caught the slave. He wanted to punish him for his offense. it was decided that the slave should be thrown before a hungry lion. The slave was made to stand in an arena. A hungry lion was led by some hunters. The bystanders awaited the result.
The lion rushed towards the slave. But as soon as he came near the slave, he stopped and bowed down. The lion stood still and kept on looking at the slave. To the surprise of everyone there, the lion started licking the feet of the slave. The lion had recognized him. The lion knew that he was the same fellow who had plucked the thorn out of his paw. The slave’s master was much impressed by this incident. He set the slave free.
