Scene 1: At the well
Once there was a very
deep well in the forest. There were four kinds of animals which fail down into
the well. They were a python, a monkey, a tiger, and an old man at the bottom
of the well. They could not come out of the well at all. Then, there is an
orphaned poor man who took a hobblingly walk with thirstiness. He thought that “There should have some water in
the well.” Then, he used the vine to fasten the bamboo tube and put it to dip
the water. As he put it to the bottom of
the well, the monkey who was fastest of all climbed out first. The monkey told
the poor man to visit him at the mountain and took a bow to say thank you.
Monkey: Thank you sir (bow). If you have a free time,
you are welcome to visit me at the mountain.
Poor man:
Ok, that great.
After that, the poor man put the bamboo tube into
the well. The tiger climbed out the well and told the poor man to visit him in
the cave in the deep forest. The tiger bow to the poor man to thanks him.
Tiger: Thank you sir (bow). If you have a free time,
you are welcome to visit me in the deep forest.
Poor man:
Ok, that great.
After that, the poor man put the bamboo tube into
the well. The snake climbed out the well and told the poor man to visit. The
snake came out before the old man who was the slowest of all. The snake took a
bow to the poor man to thanks him.
Snake: Thank you sir (bow). If you have a free time,
you are welcome to visit me in the deep forest.
Poor man:
Ok, that great.
Finally, the poor man put the bamboo tube into the
well. The snake climbed out the well and told the poor man to visit. The old
man came out and blamed to the poor man but he finally said thanks to the poor
man.
Old man:
How dared you! I am a human like you why didn’t you take me out first before
that animals.(a bit angry)
Poor man:
What?
Old man:
You helped me is the best you did, thank you. If you have a free time, you are
welcome to visit me in village. (without angriness)
