THE GRAPES ARE SOUR
There was a wixen named Manaki. She was
wayward by nature . She used to roam about
here and there all the time . She was very
moody . She remained lost in herself . Once,
Manaki was passing through the forest . She
happened to see the bunches of grapes
hanging along the creeper . Seeing the grapes
her mouth began to water . She thanked her
luck and decided to pluck the grapes .
And she started to jump to reach the grapes .
But the grapes were out of her reach. They
were too high to be even touched by her. She
said to herself," Let me try better ," and she
jumped again with all her might , but in vain.
However , she did not give in and kept on
jumping up to reach the grapes. But all her
efforts proved a failure to reach the grapes.
soon her constant jumping tired her badly and
she sat down to take rest.
Then looking at the juicy grapes . She said to
herself , " Manaki , leave the grapes . You are
making useless efforts for them . They are not
sweet as you think but sour . Thinking so , the
fox went away.
Moral : We should not be greedy.
