The Clever Donkey
Pandu lived in a village. He used to supply milk to the villagers. Every
mornings his donkey and he went for their rounds. One day, Pandu fell sick.
He did not know how to deliver the milk to his customers. So his wife suggested to send the donkey with vessels of milk. Pandu agreed. He hung a board
round the donkey’s neck with the words, “Please collect your milk and put the
money in the bag.”
The donkey then followed the route it had learned. It went to a house and
pulled the bell-rope with its teeth. A villager came out, read the notice, took his
milk and put the money in the bag. In this way the donkey went to every
villager’s house and came back to Pandu with the milk vessels empty and the
bag full of money. Pandu said to his wife, “What a clever donkey we have!”
