the woman felt very sorry for the poor little animal , and pleaded for her husband to spare the monkey , but her pleading was all in vain , the man was determined to sell him to the butcher . now the monkey was in the next room and overheard every word of the conversation . he soon understood that he was to be killed , and he said to himself : " barbarous , indeed , is my master ! here i have served him faithfully for years , and instead of allowing me to end my days comfortably and in peace , he is going to let me be cut up by the butcher , and my poor body is to be roasted and stewed and eaten ? woe is me ! what am i to do . ah ! a bright thought has struck me ! there is , i know , a wild boar living in the forest near by . i have often heard tell of his wisdom . perhaps if i go to him and tell him the strait i am in he will give me his counsel . i will go and try . " there was no time to lose . the monkey slipped out of the house and ran as quickly as he could to the forest to find the boar . the boar was at home , and the monkey began his tale of woe at once . " good mr . boar , i have heard of your excellent wisdom . i am in great trouble , you alone can help me . i have grown old in the service of my master , and because i can not dance properly now he intends to sell me to the butcher . what do you advise me to do ? i know how clever you are ! " 
the man was going to kill him soon .
