He fled, the tiger after him. Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself over the edge.<br />The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him.<br />Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away the vine. The man then saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other.<br />How sweet it tasted.
