The mouse turned to the pig and told him.“There is a mouse trap in the house.”“I am so sorry,Mr Mouse,”said the pig sympathetically,“but there is nothing I can do about it but pray;you are always in my prayers.”
The mouse turned to the cow,who said,“A mouse trap,am I in great danger,huh?”
Now the mouse had to face the farmer’s mouse trap alone.
That very night a sound was heard through the house,like that of a mouse trap catching its prey.The farmer’wife rushed to see what was caught.In the darkness,she did not see it was a big poisonous snake whose tail the trap had caught.The snake bit the farmer’s wife.The farmer rushed her to the hospital.She returned home with a fever.It is said that drinking fresh chicken soup will help treat fever,so the farmer took his sharp knife to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient.His wife’s sickness continued,so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock.To feed them,the farmer killed the pig.The farmer’s wife did not get well,in fact,she died,and so many people came for her funeral.The farmer had the cow killed to provide for all of them to eat.
