One day, the King of the Forest
called for a meeting. He was preparing to go for war. He wanted to give each
animal a responsibility.
To the Elephant, he said,
“Elephant, you should carry all the weapons of war on your back and fight with great strength.”
Then, the Lion told the Bear, “Be
prepared to rush in while the war is on, we may need you if the enemy is
pushing us over.”
He said to the Fox, “Your task is
to fix all the secret plots.” Then, he called the Monkey and said, “Take care
that the enemies should be amused by your tricks.”
While all the animals waited their
turn, one of them said, “What use are the Ass and the Hare? They
are too cowardly to fight. Send them home.” “No,” said the King, “everyone has
a part to play. Without their help we would be incomplete.”
Then the King said, “The Ass shall
be our trumpeter, to scare our enemy. And then the lively Hare will carry home
the report of our victory.”
In this way, the wise King got all
the animals involved and ready for battle.
Everyone is gifted with a talent
different from another.
