One day she went to the lion and said, Good day, respected elder brother. Image it, I
met an animal over there who looked exactly like you, and he said to me, Is there anyone in

intolerable braggart! He is so puffed up with pride that his eyes cant even light on anymore!

Oho, the lion said. Didnt you mention me to him?
Yes, indeed, the rabbit replied. But it would have been better if I hadnt. When I
described how strong you were, he just sneered and said dreadfully rude things. He even went
so far as to say that he wouldnt take you for his attendant!
