Ah Fatt , the naughty boy , was out hunting birds with his catapult . He saw a bird sitting on a tree branch .
He took aim with his catapult and fired . The stone missed the bird but struck a hornet's nest that was just a bit
above the bird .
The force of the stone hitting the nest was very great . As a result the nest was dislodged from the branch .
It fell to the ground near where Ah Fatt was standing . The disturbed hornets began to attack him !
Ah Fatt ran for his life . He yelled in pain as he ran but yet the hornets chased and stung him .
There was a stream nearby. Quickly he jumped straight into it and submerged himself so that the hornets could
not get at him .
Then they flew away . Later , Ah Fatt emerged from the river . His body was aching from the stings he received .
He had learn his lesson. It is much better to listen to a bird singing that to try to kill it for fun .
