00:00Dinner in the Town

00:01A country mouse had a town mouse as his cousin.

00:07Once, the town mouse went to meet the country mouse.

00:11The country mouse served berries, roots, grains and nuts to his cousin.

00:18But the town mouse made a face and said,

00:21Oh, such a boring lunch.

00:24It tastes no good.

00:27Come to town with me and I'll give you a lavish dinner.

00:31The country mouse went with the town mouse.

00:35He lived in a hole in a wall of a house in a dark street.

00:40The town mouse really served a lavish dinner.

00:45There were cheese, jam, bread, honey, dates, fig and dry fruits.

00:51The town mouse sat down to enjoy dinner.

00:54But after every bite, the town mouse asked his cousin to nibble noiselessly.

01:02He said,

01:03If we nibble loudly or talk loudly,

01:07the cat wandering around will come to get us.

01:11After a while, the cat's meows were heard nearby.

01:19Throughout dinner, the town mouse was afraid that the cat would get them.

01:24After the dinner, the country mouse said,

01:27Cousin, I am going back to the field in the countryside.

01:30At least I can enjoy my simple food in the fresh air and without fear of a cat.

01:40Moral

01:41Riches are not always pleasure giving.
