The sun : I see a way to decide our dispute. Whichever of us can cause that
Traveller to take off his cloak shall be regarded as the strongest.
The wind : Would you mind not talking so loudly ?
The sun : Sorry. Okay , you begin . I will retire behind a cloud .
The wind : I will blow as hard as I can and I will be the winner
The sun : Okay . Good luck.
The wind : zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz I’m so tired. What is happening to me ? I shouldn’t
give up. I have to blow harder . zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
