A long time ago, a lion fell in love with a young lady in the country, but she did not love him. She was so beautiful that the lion wanted to marry her. One day, the lion went to the young lady’s house to ask her parents for their blessing*. Her parents were too scared to say a word when they saw the lion. They were afraid to refuse* the lion because they didn’t want to make him angry. The father thought of* an idea. He said, “We are all happy that the King of Beasts* loves my daughter, but I am afraid you might hurt her with your sharp claws* and sharp teeth. If you promise to get rid of these, I will let my daughter marry you.” The lion was glad and promised to do so right away. A few days later, he came back to the lady’s house without his sharp claws and teeth. To the lion’s surprise, the father still wouldn’t let him marry his daughter. He said, “We are not afraid of you anymore because your teeth and claws are gone!”
