  1. A lion once caught a mouse and he was hungry. The lion said that he would eat him. The mouse said that if he would let him go he might free the lion again. The lion let the mouse go on that condition. Another time the lion got caught in a net. The mouse saw the lion in the net. The mouse had pity for the lion when the he saw the lion. So the mouse began to cut the net as well as he could until the mouse freed the lion.
