Once there lived in a forest a hair and a tortoise. The hare was
very proud of his speed. He made fun of the tortoise for his slow speed. The
tortoise challenged the hare to have a race with him. The hare accepted the
challenge.
The race started. The crow was the referee. The hare ran very
fast. The tortoise was left much behind. The hare stopped to take rest under a
tree. He fell asleep. The tortoise passed him and reached the winning post. The
hare woke up and ran as fast as he could. He saw that the tortoise was already
there at the winning post. He had won the race.
Moral: Slow and steady wins the
race or pride hath a fall.
