The Ant and a Dove

Once upon a time there lived a dove in the bush of a wood. There were also some ants surrounding the bush. One day an ant came down from the bush and was seeking food on the bank of a pond. By chance it slipped and fell into the water. The ant tried hard to save its life but failed to get ashore. It was at the point of death. It was trembling in fear finding no way out. At that time the dove was sitting in the branch of a tree. He saw the miserable condition of the ant. Then he took a straw by his beak to drop it on the water.

After that the dove dropped the straw and thus the ant creeped and caught hold of it and saved its life. The ant became too much grateful to the dove. One day he saw a man aiming his arrow to the dove. At that time the ant went to the man and creeped upon the man's leg and bit the man. Having been bitten the man lost his target as he had to respond to the bitting place. Then the man failed to shoot the dove and thus missed his target. At that moment the dove got the chance to fly. Thus the ant saved the dove's life.
