Describe the feelings of the little bowman about his crooked back and how he could get a job in the army. |

Answer» The little man was very wise. He was a skilled archer too. But he was unhappy with his crooked back. His strong desire was to join the army. But he knew that he would be refused to join the army because of his crooked back. He thought, “How unlucky fellow I am! Though I am a skilled archer 1 could not fulfil my wish. Oh, God! Why did you give me this crooked back? What can I do now? Shall I go to the king and request him to take me into his army? No, it is not good. He should not give me the job because of my crooked back. Oh, God! Please show me a way to join the army. If I don’t get a job in the army, my life is futile. What will happen if I assist a strong man? Why can’t I use a strong man to join the army? Yes, it is a good idea! I must find out a strong man and ask him to take me as his assistant. Then we will go to the king and he will give jobs to both of us in the army. Thank God! You have given me a right idea. Now, I am hopeful of fulfilling my wish.” |
