The Hare
With
Many Friends

One day a terrible thing happened. There was a pack of hounds running in the forest and they were hunting hares. Scared, and desperate for help, the hare ran to her friends. She went to the horse first. “You are fast and have ample space on your back, please carry me to some safe place.“ The horse, however, refused. “I have other important work,“ was what he said.

Next, she ran to the buffalo. “Please help me,“ she pleaded. “I would, but I have prior arrangements.“ Then he added that the goat might be of some help. So, the hare ran to the goat. “Please, you have to help me,“ she cried. But the goat said, “I am small, and my back is awkward. You might hurt yourself.“

After this, the hare ran to the ram. “Will you help me?“ she asked. “I would like to decline,“ he replied. “You see, I do not like to interfere in other“s matters. And for your information, hounds have been known to eat sheep as well. So, ask for help some other day.“

Her last hope was the calf, who too refused. “I do not wish to take up too much responsibility. So, I can“t help you. By now the hounds were near. “What should I do?“ Before she could think of something more, she ran. With all her might she ran! Luckily she escaped from the hounds and once the hare managed to catch her breath she realised what she had learned from her experience.
