38. A Tailor and the Elephant

A Tailor and the Elephant.
Once there lived a tailor in a village. An elephant also lived in the same village. The elephant visited the tailor's shop every day. The tailor fed him with something or the other.
They lived like good friends. One day the tailor was not in a good mood. When the elephant came to his shop he pricked its trunk with a needle. The elephant went to the river and filled his trunk with plenty of mud and dirt.
He stopped at the tailor's shop and throw in all the muddy water on the garments in the shop. The clothes were spoiled with mud. The tailor suffered a great loss. He felt sad for his misdeed. But it was too late.
Moral: tit for tat.
