The Tyrant Who Became a Just Ruler


In the olden times there was a king who was so cruel and unjust toward his subjects that he was always called The Tyrant. So heartless was
he that people used to pray night and day that might have a new king.
One day, he called his people together and said to them, “My dear subjects, the day of my tyranny are over. Henceforth, you shall live in
peace and happiness, for I have decided to try my rule henceforth justly and well.”
The king kept his words so well that soon he was known throughout the land as The Just King. By and by of his favorites came to him said,
“Your Majesty I beg you to tell me how it was that you had this change of heart towards our people.”
And the King replied “As I was galloping through my forest one afternoon, I Caught sight of a hound chasing o fox. The fox escaped into his
hole, but not until he had been bitten by the dog so badly that he would be lame for life. The hound, returning home, met a man who threw a
stone at him, which broke his leg. And the horse, starting to run, fell into a hole and broke his leg, Here I came to my senses, and resolved
to change my rule. ‘for surly,’ I said to my self; he who does evil will sooner or later be overtaken by evil.”
