The Story.

Long ago, there was a young prince who wanted to find his best wife. The prince wanted to marry a beautiful girl. But above all, he wanted to marry an honest girl whom he could trust. One day, the prince decided how to choose the right wife. "I will hold a match, and all the girls in the village can participate," he declared. And the girls of the village gathered to hear the prince's speech. They were all very beautiful, and ardently desired to marry the handsome prince. 'I know how to choose my wife from you,' declared the prince. 'I will give each of you a flower seed, and the girl who will plant the biggest and most beautiful flower will become my bride.' Each girl took a seed and promised to return the following month for a festival at which the prince would choose his bride. The festival will be a huge celebration, and the whole village will attend so that they know who will become the Prince's bride.

The month passed quickly, and soon the day of the festival came. Food was plentiful, music was pleasant, celebrations and predictions abounded among the villagers. Each girl arrived in turn, and each carried her flower

in a small clay vase, and each flower was more beautiful and smelled more beautiful than the last. But a shy and quiet girl from the village arrived carrying a clay pot containing nothing but dirt. In the middle of the pot, the seed was alone without a flower. The girls with beautiful flowers said to her: "Why did you come even though you did not sow a flower from your seed?" The villagers mocked and mocked her for not being able to grow a simple flower while the other girls succeeded. They asked her: "How did you not succeed in growing a flower from your seed?" Then all the villagers suddenly fell silent.

The prince has arrived, and it is time for him to choose his wife. The prince looked at all the flowers and admired their beauty. And each girl was convinced that the prince chose her to become his bride. But when the prince stood before the girl carrying a vessel containing nothing but the seed, he surprised her and said, "You will be my bride." The villagers were very surprised, but the prince said to them, "I choose this girl because all the seeds I gave you were sterile. I boiled them with water so that no flowers would grow from them. Surely the other girls exchanged my seed for another so that you could grow these flowers and deceive me, but this the girl was honest, so I choose her to be my bride." So the young prince and the young girl got married on the same day, and the whole village celebrated all night, and they ate and drink to the marriage of the prince and his honest bride.

THE CLEVER RABBIT

The Story. There was a tiger in the forest that would hunt day and night. The other animals would be afraid of the tiger because he was the biggest and most powerful animals of all.

Night and day they feared that the bloodthirsty tiger would prey on them and devour them. The antelope, the pigs, even the monkeys were scared and they could do nothing about the fierce tiger. But nothing happened to the bloodthirsty tiger.

The only animal not afraid was the rabbit. He lived under the ground and would come out for food only when he was sure the forest was safe.

One evening, at the meeting place all the animals were gathered. ‘Monkey asked, what can we do about the fierce tiger?’ pigs said now we are tired of being scared. It was then that the clever rabbit stood up and said: ‘you leave him to me and soon we will live without fear.’ The animals were very thankful to the rabbit, but they did not have faith in that such a small creature could help them get rid of the big, ferocious tiger. ‘You’re only small,’ they said. ‘What will you do against such a big and strong tiger?’ Just wait and see, ’said the clever rabbit, jumping over to the side of the tiger’s den in the dense forest.

When the clever rabbit approached the tiger he was very scared but why did he keep his heart and was sure to work on his plan. ‘I have come to inform you that there is a more powerful tiger in this forest than you,’ he said. ‘It’s impossible! ‘The tiger growled. ‘I am the most powerful tiger and now I will eat you up right now to prove it. ‘But why am I telling the truth,’ replied the clever rabbit. ‘This tiger has captured my brother and has warned me that he will come back and challenge any animals that he thinks is more powerful than him. ‘Show me where he is,’ the tiger demanded, ‘and we’ll see who is more powerful. ‘‘If you show me,’ replied the rabbit, ‘’do you promise not to eat me or my brother up?’ ‘I promise,’ said the Tiger. And so the rabbit and the tiger went together.

Moments later, the rabbit knelt down and pretended not to continue the search. ‘I’m so tired,’ she said. "Can you carry me?" The tiger agreed to carry the clever rabbit with his big paws and continued his journey.

It was not long before the two of them reached a small clearing in the jungle where there was a very deep well with water at the bottom. ‘The tiger that has challenged you sits at the bottom of this well,’ said the clever rabbit. ‘And with him is your little brother? The tiger asked. Yes, he is with him. But you won't eat us because you promised. The tiger smiled and slowly moved to the edge of the deep well. When he reached the edge of the well, he looked down into the darkness and thought that he had seen a tiger holding a rabbit. You will now fulfill your promise and save my brother. Said the clever rabbit. I won’t do anything like that! The tiger growled. I will eat you and your brother and destroy the tiger that has challenged me in my own forest!

But as the words came out of the tiger's mouth, the clever rabbit jumped on him and left the tiger to fight his enemy alone. What the tiger did not understand was that he saw his reflection in the water at the bottom of the well. The bloodthirsty tiger jumped into the well thinking it was attacking its enemy. But instead of another tiger waiting at the bottom of the well, he was confronted with only dark and cold water. He tried and sprinkled water and did his best to pull himself out of the well with his claws. But eventually the bloodthirsty tiger lost its strength and drowned. ‘You’ll be big and powerful, said the clever rabbit, ‘but I am the cleverest!’

When the rabbit returned to the interview center, he informed all the other animals that the bloodthirsty tiger had died. ‘Now you can all live without any fear! ‘He shouted.

The animals were very happy and very grateful to the clever rabbit, and there was a great celebration that night because the forest was finally saved from the bloodthirsty tiger forever.
