In the old days, a man came to a well to draw water. He saw the reflection of the moon in the water and shouted:
- The month fell into the well!
He attached a hook to the end of the rope and began to fish the month out of the water. The hook caught on a stone at the bottom of the well, and the rope broke. The fool fell on his back and looked at the moon in the sky.
- Well, I’m tired! - the fool wiped the sweat from his forehead. - But the month is back in its place!
