He decided to flee from his master and find shelter somewhere far from the Nile valley, among the bare sand dunes. The androcles b, that barely moved my feet, only fear prevented him to stop and fall onto the burning land. Suddenly, in the limestone rock directly in front of him, he saw the entrance to the cave. He decided to rest a little among the cool stones and fell to the ground in exhaustion. But he had to rest for a short time: some shadow closed the entrance to the cave. Lifting his head, Androcles saw a huge lion standing in front of him. Without knowing it, the ill-fated slave found refuge in his lair.
The lion let out a dull growl and moved forward. The androcles turned to stone from fear. But the lion was not threatening. The beast crouched on one paw and seemed to be looking at Androcles pleadingly. Here he came closer and lifted his sore paw. The androcles decided that it was his last hour, but the lion carefully, not letting the claws, put a paw on his shoulder. He asked a man for help. Androcles took a paw and saw a huge sharp thorn. He carefully pulled it out, and the lion gratefully rubbed his head against the breast of his deliverer, and then lay down at his feet and fell asleep. At first Androcles decided to flee immediately, but the fatigue and the horror was broken by his power, he made himself comfortable next to the lion and went to sleep. Since then, the lion and the man lived in the wilderness together. The lion hunted and brought food to Androcles, who spent all his time near the cave.
