THERE IS A LEGEND FROM INDIA ABOUT A MOUSE THAT ILLUSTRATES THIS TYPE OF PERSON.
1. HE WAS SO TERRIFIED OF CATS THAT HE ASKED A MAGICIAN TO TRANSFORM HIM INTO A CAT.
2. THAT RESOLVED HIS FEAR UNTIL HE MET A DOG, SO THE MAGICIAN TURNED HIM INTO A DOG.
3. HE WAS CONTENT UNTIL HE MET A TIGER.
P. ONCE AGAIN, THE MAGICIAN TURNED HIM INTO WHAT HE FEARED, BUT WHEN THE TIGER CAME COMPLAINING THAT HE HAD MET A HUNTER, THE MAGICIAN REFUSED TO HELP SAYING, "I WILL MAKE YOU INTO A MOUSE AGAIN, FOR THOUGH YOU HAVE THE BODY OF A TIGER, YOU STILL HAVE THE HEART OF A MOUSE."
