How the Turtle Saved His Own Life
(Retold by Ellen C. Babbit)
A king once had a lake made in the courtyard for the young princes to play
in. They swam about in it, and sailed their boats and rafts on it. One day, the king
told them he had asked the men to put some fish in the lake.
Off the boys ran to see the fish. Now, along with the fish was a turtle. The
boys were delighted with the fish, but they had never seen a turtle. They were
afraid of it; thinking it was a demon. They ran back to their father, crying. There is
a demon on the bank of the lake.
The king ordered his men to catch the demon and to bring it to the palace.
When the turtle was brought in, the boys cried and ran away.
The king was very fond of his sons, so he ordered the men who brought the
turtle to kill it.
How shall we kill it? they asked.
Pound it to powder, said someone.
Bake it over a bet of hot coals, said another.
So one plan after another was spoken of. Then, an old man who had always
been afraid of the water said. Throw the thing into the lake where it flows out over
the rocks into the river. Then, it will surely be killed.
When the turtle heard what the old man said, he thrust out his head and
asked, Friend, what have I done that you should do such a dreadful thing to me?
The other plans were bad enough, but to throw me into the lake! Dont speak of
such cruel thing!
When the king heard what the turtle said, he told his men to take the turtle
at once and throw it into the lake.
The turtle laughed to himself as he slid down the river to his old home.
Good! he said, those people do not know how safe I am in the water.
