Once, a mouse was of a marriageable age. But he was very choosy and could not find someone suitable. So, his desperate parents visited God to ask him for a wife for their son. God said, “Go to the Wind. He is very strong.” But the Wind said, “I am not the strongest. The Mountain is stronger than I.” But the Mountain said, “There is another person stronger than I. He digs at my foundations day and night. He makes holes in my sides, and causes me to crumble. His family is the most powerful.” The parents asked, “Where can we find him?” The Mountain pointed to his house, and the parents went there. It was the home of a Mouse. The Mouse heard everything and said, “You have come to the right place. My daughter is just right for your son!” Thus, the mouse found his rightful wife.
