The text is for questions number 22 to 25 Once when a Lion was asleep a little
Mouse began running up and down on his face; this soon wakened the Lion, who
placed his huge paw upon him, and opened his big jaws to swallow him. “Pardon, O
King,” cried the little Mouse: “forgive me this time, I shall never forget it: who knows
but I may be able to do you a turn someday?” The Lion was so tickled at the
idea of the Mouse being able to help him that he lifted up his paw and let him go.
Some times after the Lion was caught in a net, there were the hunters who desired
to carry him alive to the King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a wagon to
carry him on. Just then the little Mouse happened to pass by, and seeing the Lion in
the net she went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bound the King of the
Beasts, and then she said, “Was I not right?”

Once upon a time, a hawk fell in love with hen. The hawk flew down from the sky
and asked hen, “Won’t you marry me?” The hen loved the brave, strong hawk and
wished to marry him. But she said, “I cannot fly as high as you can. If you give me a time,
I may learn to fly as high as you. Then we can fly together.” The hawk agreed. Before
he went away, he gave hen a ring. “This is to show that you have promised to marry me,”
said the hawk. So it happened that the hen had already
promised to marry a rooster. So, when the rooster saw the ring, he became very angry.
“Throw that ring away at once Didn’t you tell me the hawk that you’d already

was so furious that he cursed the hen. “Why didn’t you tell me the earlier? Now, you’ll
