STORY – THE MILKMAID AND HER DREAM
Once there was a milkmaid in a village. She was always lost in her dreams. Once
she was carrying a pail of milk on her head. She was going to market to sell it. As
she was walking, she started day dreaming.
She thought that she would buy eggs with that money which she would get by
selling milk. After the eggs were hatched, she would have a large number of
chickens. Then she would get high price by selling chickens. She would then buy
fine silk dress for herself and look very beautiful. Many princes would come to
marry her, but she would toss her head and would refuse them.
While thinking so, she did really toss her head in false pride. The pail of milk fell
on the ground. The whole milk was spilt and all her plans were dashed to the
ground.
