00:02The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse
00:15Once upon a time, a simple and happy mouse, named Country Mouse, lived in a quiet countryside.
00:25He was pleased with his life and truly enjoyed the countryside.
00:28One day, Country Mouse invited his cousin, Town Mouse, to visit him and experience the countryside.
00:37After a few days, his cousin Town Mouse arrived, and the Country Mouse welcomed his cousin.
00:42He said,
00:43They were meeting and greeting each other when there was a sudden downpour, and both of them rushed inside their home.
00:55Country Mouse served his best meal of cheese and corn.
00:58But Town Mouse did not like the food, and he asked how you could live like this.
01:03In the city, we have much better food.
01:05You should visit me.
01:07Curious about city life, Country Mouse agreed to visit the city.
01:12The next day, both of them started their journey towards the city.
01:15The journey is long, and they have to travel through many mountains and rivers.
01:21Also, they need to reach a safe place before dark.
01:25While crossing the mountains, it was slightly getting dark, amidst there was a downpour, and both ran toward the nearby village to find a safe place to stay that night.
01:35They were lucky to find shelter in the nearby village to spend that night.
01:40The entire night, it was raining.
01:43The next day morning, both started their journey towards the city.
01:47After traveling for an hour, they finally reached the city outskirts.
01:51They continued the journey till they reached the Town Mouse's home.
01:57The Town Mouse's home was grand and filled with delicious food, but the danger was always knocking on the doors.
02:05The Town Mouse said,
02:06Just as they started to eat, a giant cat sprang into the room.
02:15The mice fled in fear, and they hid themselves behind the sofa.
02:20The cat enjoyed the food and went away.
02:24When the cat left, they tried to eat again, but a maid entered, causing them to hide once more.
02:31The Country Mouse had had enough.
02:33He decided to return to his peaceful countryside.
02:35He told the Town Mouse that he would rather have simple meals in peace than a feast in fear.
02:42The Town Mouse felt disappointed.
02:45The next day morning, the Country Mouse bid farewell to his cousin and started his return journey back home,
02:52appreciating his safe and simple life more than ever.
02:56The Country Mouse reached home and was as delighted as ever.
