one day a monkey who was very hungry met with a turtle ¹ along the road. "my dear slow foot, can't you find anything to eat for me?" said the monkey. "o yes, ² head, i can," said the turtle. "come this way, there is a banana-plant just over there."

 

soon they came to the banana-plant ³ lot of ripe fruit. the monkey climbed the plant, but before he could pick some bananas, the turtle cried, "run, sly head, run! here comes a man!" ⁴ he came down and ran in a hurry. but the turtle could not run, and she caught the monkey's tail in her mouth and the monkey pulled her away.
