Then the Mouse-deer says, "What friendship with those Hares! If you
become friendly with us what things cannot we do!"
Then the Parrot says, "Friend, he is [my] former first friend; now
then, I cannot abandon him."
At that the Mouse-deer having become a little angry went away. Having
so gone, the Mouse-deer, seeking the Hare, says to [1] the Hare,
"Friend, with that Parrot what friendship! The food which that one
eats is different, the place where that one lies down is different,
that one is an animal which flies [in the air] above. Are we so? We
lie down in one place, we eat one food. Because of it, give up [your]
friendship with that one." At that the Hare became a little angry.
After that, the Mouse-deer, having gone near the Parrot, says,
"Take you [to heart] the things that I say, O Parrot-youngster."
