At the festival, a wealthy man riding a horse wanted to enter the crowd but was afraid that his horse might run away or that someone might take it.
He approached a young boy, around twelve or thirteen years old, and asked him to watch the horse, promising to pay him. The boy inquired:
– Does your horse kick people?
– It kicks very hard; it will kick anyone who comes too close.
– So, does it often run away?
– Never.
– Well, then why do you need me to watch it?
