The story of a wise bird who, seeing a farmer trying to catch him, avoided him until
the farmer was quite exasperated. In the end, the farmer camouflaged himself as a
tree but the bird laughed in his face. The story was related in reference to a monk,
who was a fellow of Sariputta. The monk was very careful about his body, and earned
the reputation of a dandy. The bird is identified with the monk. |
