The caterpillar clung to the branch and did not answer the lion.

Suddenly, the stormy winds became stronger and a few trees were uprooted. A
heavy branch of a tree broke and fell on the lion’s hind leg. The lion roared in pain.

Lion: Ah! Somebody help me!

The caterpillar saw the lion crying in pain. He felt that the lion deserved it but soon
he was overcome by the feeling of acceptance for the lion.

In a little while, the storm passed. The lion had fainted in pain. The caterpillar
called out to the insects and animals to help him.

Caterpillar: Somebody help the lion. He is trapped and injured.
Rabbit: (coming out of his hole) Why? He has always made fun of us. If he is

so strong he can help himself.

Turtle: Yes, he hasn’t been nice to us.

Caterpillar: If we do the same thing to him as he did to us, there would be no

difference between us and him.
