Story - The learned fools

Learn the following story.
The learned fools
    Once there lived four friends.Three of them were learned men. People called them Doctors but they were not wise. The fourth man was not a Doctor, but he was a wise man.
    One day the four friends were passing through a forest. They saw a lion on their way. It was half dead. “Let’s give it life.” They said.
    “ I can put the bones together.” said the one.
    “ I can stitch up the wounds.” said the other friend.
    “ I can make its heart beat again.” said the third friend.
    But the fourth man said, “Stop! Don’t do that. The lion will kill you.”
    The learned Doctors laughed at him and called him a fool. As they started their work, the fourth man climbed up a tall tree.
    The lion soon woke up. Then it sprang upon the three Doctors and killed them.When the lion had gone away, the fourth man climbed down from the tree and went home.
