There was once a king, a great and mighty warrior named Genghis Khan. ...
One day, the king rode out into the woods to hunt. With him went his favorite hawk. The hawk would fly about in the air, circling. When the hawk’s sharp eyes spotted some prey from the air, the bird would immediately scoop down for the attack.
It was a warm day, and by afternoon the king was hot and thirst. ... It was not much, but it was water, and the king was very thirsty. ...
The king could hardly wait to feel the cool liquid wet his dry lips and tongue and throat. ... Suddenly, something swooped through the air and knocked the cup from the king’s hand, spilling the precious water on the ground.
Startled, Genghis Khan looked up to see his pet hawk, flying from tree to tree and looking rather proud of himself.
