Question

large enough to fly. One morning when the mother lark was going out, she said to her little

ones “Wheat is now ripe enough to be cut. So keep awake and when I come home tell me

all that you hear.” The little larks promised that they would do so. She was hardly out of

sight and the farmer who owned the field came with his son.

“John”, he said, “It is time to cut the wheat. Go to our neighbours and ask them to come

tomorrow and help us.” When the mother lark came home the young ones told her what

they had heard; and they begged her to move them out of the field.

“There is no hurry,” she said. “If he waits for his neighbours he will have to wait for a long

time.” His neighbours didn’t turn up. The farmer said, “The grain is so ripe. We can’t wait.

Let’s go home and get everything ready, so that we can begin our work tomorrow before

sunrise. “

When the mother lark came home the little larks told her what they heard. “Now indeed, it

is time for us to be off. When a man makes up his mind to do a thing himself, it is pretty sure to be done
