Abstract
This fable is like a cartoon comedy. A leopard overhears a couple speaking of the deadly "leaking rain." He hides in the barn, where he hears the approach of what he thinks is "leaking rain" but is really a thief trying to steal an ox. The thief harnesses what he thinks is the ox and rides him out. When both get to see what they are mated with, they run away in fright and never return to that village. The stated moral is "One who is fearful out of foolishness will always lose his chances." The moral page has a standard framework throughout this Series #7, with insects at the corners and a child in the center. The editors struggle with punctuating quotations. The front-cover on both sides has symbols for Green Life publishing, Green Ocean paper, and yessoy ink. The publisher's symbol seems to be two purple heads reading an open red book; it is repeated three times. There is a page of vocabulary on the inside back cover, with a picture of all six books in the series on the back cover. The pamphlet is twelve pages long, about 7½" x 6¾".
