ANDROCLES

AND
THE LION

(Adapted from an Aesop’s Fable)


by Gretel Laura M. Cadiong
Once there was a slave named
Androcles who escaped from his
master. He went to the forest to
hide.
As he was walking through the
forest, he saw a lion lying down
moaning and groaning. Androcles
was afraid so he immediately ran
away. But he was surprised when
the lion did not chase him. So he
returned back and went near the
lion.
As he got near, the lion put out
his paw. Androcles saw that it was
bleeding and swollen. He found out
that a big thorn had got into it. He
pulled out the thorn and bound up
the paw of the lion.
The lion rose and licked the hand
of Androcles like a dog. For several
days, Androcles would go to the lion
to bring him some meat, until he got
fully well.
One day, both Androcles and the
lion were caught. Androcles was
imprisoned and was sentenced to be
thrown to a hungry lion.
Soon, Androcles was led out to the
plaza where the king and all his
soldiers came to watch how the
slave would be eaten up by the lion.
Next, the lion was let loose from his
den and roared loud as it got near
its victim.
But as it got close to
Androcles, the lion recognized his
friend, and licked him like a friendly
dog.
The king who was very
surprised called Androcles. He, then
told the king about how he and the
lion became friends. So the king
forgave Androcles and freed him
while the lion was let loose and
brought back to the forest.
