Androcles was a slave. He ran through the forest. He wanted to hide among high trees. He wanted to run far from the village where
he lived and was a slave. He thought his life was very hard, in fact
it was impossible. Androcles wanted to save his life in the forest.
Suddenly he saw a big lion. Nobody else was seen near him. Androcles became afraid but understood that the lion couldn’t do him any
harm. The lion was breathing hard. He wanted to show Androcles
that something was wrong with his paw.1 The lion couldn’t speak
the language of people but he wanted to say: “Save me! Protect me!
Help me!”
Androcles looked at the lion’s paw and discovered a large thorn2
in it. It was hidden deep in the paw. Androcles took it away. The
lion was happy. They became friends and the lion brought him food
every day.
But one day the Emperor’s3 people caught both Androcles and his
friend the lion.
They brought them to Rome and separated them. They didn’t give
any food to the lion. He became very hungry and then they gave
him Androcles to eat. But the lion was his real friend. He didn’t kill
Androcles. He was happy to see his friend.
The Emperor couldn’t understand it. Androcles was brought to
him and he told the Emperor his story. The Emperor gave food to
the lion and let them both go away.
