The story of the
crows and the serpent
Once upon a time there lived a crow couple, who had built a nest on the top of a tree. But unfortunately the tree was inhabited by a serpent at its bottom. So the serpent used to crawl up the tree and eat all the eggs that the lady crow used to lay. The crow couple were deeply grieved and when this happened time after time, then they decided that the serpent was to be get rid of by a plan.
So the crow then approached his friend the jackal and
asked for a plan. The jackal then told him to go and fetch a costly thing
from the palace of the king and throw the thing in the burrow of the snake.
The crow went to palace, and stole a necklace of the queen while she was
bathing. The gaurds of the palace ran after it. The crow then dropped the
necklace in the burrow of the snake beneath the tree.
The gaurds on reaching the bottom of the tree, found the necklace gaurded by
the serpent. Then they lynched the serpent and recovered the necklace. So
the crow family was now happy that their eggs were safe now.
