THE NOBLE MIND

There lived a king who had an eagle with which he goes a hunting with.
One day this very king went to hunt in a very far forest, along with his eagle. This eagle helps the king so much in hunting, that it flies up high to sight preys & signal the king by falling down in that very point then the king will strike. After hunting the king was prepared to get back home but couldn't find the eagle anymore...

He searched & whistled to the eagle but still the eagle didn't surface. So the king decided to go home anyway, having it in mind that maybe the eagle has gotten home by itself.
While returning, the king was very tasty and had no water left in his little cup/jar. He got to a point where he found a wet ground as a result of some drop of water from a high rocky mountain. He immediately placed his lil' jar towards the position wherein the water dropeth unto. he waited for some minutes till the Lil jar got filled up, he drew it towards his mouth to drink, immediately his eagle appeared, flew down wards & hit the cup of water off the kings hand & flew away again, The water got wasted, & the king was so, very angry at the stupid act of his humble eagle. he picked up the cup & placed it back in the same direction wherein the water drops. After waiting for some minutes, as he tried to drink the water, his eagle flew down again and hit the cup off the kings hand... This time king couldn't beer it anymore that he concluded to slay this eagle if it tries that again. He drew out his sword & kept it by his side. He place the cup for the last time to uptain water from the rock so as to quench his taste. After the cup was filled the king tried to drink, here comes the eagle, as it hit the cup away from the kings hand the king used his sword & slaughtered his eagle. The eagle died & the king was happy to have peace of mind.
Instead of waiting for some drops of water bellow he decided to climb to the top of this mountain so as to drink from the main source of the water...he climbed & climbed till he got to the top of this very mountain through which the drops of water comes from. it was a lake in the middle of the mountain 'BUT' unfortunately a poisonous python lies dead in the middle of this lake. The king was so disappointed that he have killed the eagle that saved him from drinking of a poisonous water. The king was heart-rendered for he has stupidly misunderstood & rewarded the eagle, evil for the good it did to save his life...he knelt down & cried but it was too late, so he carried the eagle home & made a statue of it.
