Two friends were once passing
through a jungle. One was carrying his gun with him. He went on boasting of his
bravery and the courage with which he killed many tigers and leopards. All of a
sudden they saw bear at some distance. The man with the gun ran to the nearest
tree and
climbed to a safe place. But he forgot all about his poor friend, and
left him to his fate. However, in his helplessness, he flung himself down upon
his face and laid there upon the ground like a dead man. The bear smelt his
body and turned him over. But it took him for a dead man and went away, without
doing him any harm.
After a few minutes, the bear was
quite out of sight. The boaster came down from the tree and asked his friend, ‘’what
did the bear say in our ear? ‘’He quickly replied, ‘’It only advised me to have
no trust in boaster.’’
