their dreams. They passed through a forest.

tree.

ground and held his breath. He pretended to be
dead and started praying to God for his life.
The bear sniffed him from head to toe, but he
did not move at all considering him dead, the
bear left him unharmed and went away into the
forest. When the bear was well out of sight, the

his friend he asked in mocking tone what the
bear was saying into his ear. The friend, who
was grieved at the selfishness of his friend
disliked his tone. He replied angrily that the
