The traveller happily accompanied the lion to the cave and spent the night at the cave. Next morning when he was ready to leave, the lion came with a necklace in his hand and presented it to the traveller. He was delighted to have such a beautiful necklace. He said “You are very generous, O king of beasts.” “Once when I was resting under a tree I found that necklace”, said the lion. Saying goodbye to his friend the traveller set out to the city.
