- Once upon a time, there was a man walking by the roadside. When he was passing by a tree, he heard something squeaking, and he stood to listen. Then he recognised that it was a weasel killing a rabbit.
He went to assist the rabbit, and the weasel was vexed with him, and he put his tail into his mouth to call for help.
When the man saw the weasel putting his tail in his mouth, he started to get afraid, and he ran for his life.
