The Donkey in Lion's Skin
The Donkey in Lion's Skin
Once upon a time a donkey found Lion's skin. He dressed in that skin. Wherever he went the other animals and people feared him. Everyone thought that he was a real lion. Soon he started to think of himself as a lion.
One day he heard some donkeys braying in the village. He wanted to show them that he can sing even louder. So he started braying and the villagers heard him. There ran after him with sticks and beat him to death. Thus the poor donkey paid the price for his foolishness.
