The Horse and the Donkey
A washer man had a horse and a donkey. One day, the washer man had
loaded his donkey
with heavy bundles of clothes. The horse carried nothing.
The load on the donkey was very heavy. So he requested the horse,
brother! The load is killing me. Please share some of it.
The horse neighed. Why should I? We horses are meant for riding.
The donkey kept walking on. Eventually, the donkey fell down exhausted
by the heavy load.
then the washer man realised his mistake. He gave water to the donkey
and transferred
the entire load of clothes onto the horse’s back.
The horse repented and thought, I should have listened to the donkey
and accepted
half the load. Now I will have to carry the entire load to the market.
