The king felt that the spirit of the Sal tree was nobler than his own. Why did he feel so? |
|
Answer» The tree-spirit went to the king and requested strangely that ‘Let me be felled in three parts. The king had never ever heard such desire to suffer the death stroke. The tree spirit went on explaining that dozens of young Sal trees have sprung from me and thrived in my generous shadow. If I was felled with one mighty storke, my weight would certainly crush all my children to death’. |
