Once a cartman was going to the market place . His cart was loaded
heavily with bags of corn . It was
evening time and growing dark .
The weather also was bad . One the way
it was pitch dark due to clouds. Soon it began dizzling . Now it began to rain
heavily .The path became slippery and
full of pools of water and mud . The cart was moving very slowly and heavily . he tried to goad his oxen to speed up but in vain. They want on at
a snails place .



suddenly the wheels of the cart stuck up into thick mud . Soon the he heavy load stuck them deeper . he tired his best to goad the oxen out but in vain.
Now having given in, he sat on one side of the 'road grieving badly on the state of affairs .
