The three promises

A young man named Aditya was walking through a forest. He came across a well. Aditya was thirsty and wanted to drink some water

But he was shocked to see a tiger, a snake and a man trapped inside the well, which was dry. All three pleaded with Aditya to pull them up.

Aditya was scared by thinking:

• What if the tiger eats me?
• What if the snake bites me? he thought

But the tiger assured him that

15. he wouldn't harm Aditya.
16. If he rescued him.

The snake hissed in agreement.
