There was a Boy who was stung by a Nettle. He ran home and told his Mother, saying, "Although it hurts me very much, I only touched it gently."
"That was just why it stung you," said his Mother.
"The next time you touch a Nettle, catch it
carefully, and it will be soft as silk to your
hand, and not in the least hurt you."
Moral: Whatever you do, do with all
your might.
