Wicked Deserves No Mercy
Once, in a village, there lived a farmer who was very kind hearted by nature He could not see anybody in trouble and was always ready to help others. It was a high winter morning and it was so cold that everything looked frozen. While returning home from his farm, the farmer saw a snake lying by the foot-path. It was almost frozen and looked half-dead due to severe cold. The farmer could not see it in such a condition and decided to help it. He lifted the snake and took it to his home. There, he placed it near the fire. In a short time, the warmth of the fire revived it and it started moving, turned upon the farmer and bit him. The farmer died repenting, “Had I not shown mercy to this wicked creature, I would have been alive today. “
