Every day, they sat together and talked about interesting things. Once they were sitting under a big tree and talking about elephants. All of them didn't know what an elephant was like. They wanted to know very much. At this time, a man was riding an elephant. The four blind men wanted to touch it. The man allowed them to do so. They were very happy. The first man said, "The elephant is like a wall." The second man said, "The elephant is like a trunk." The third man said, "The elephant is like a rope." The fourth man said, "The elephant is like a fan."
