him for is to cut out his liver to use as a
medicine for the queen.”
So the jellyfish started off on his
strange errand. In those days, he was just
like any other fish, with eyes and fins and a
tail. But he had little feet also, so that he
could walk on land. It did not take him many
hours to swim across the country where the
monkeys live. Fortunately there happened
to be a monkey jumping about among the
branches of the trees near the place where
the jellyfish landed.
“Good morning, Mr. Monkey,” said
the jellyfish. “I have come to tell you a
beautiful country where the weather is
always pleasant. There are plenty of ripe
fruits on the trees, and there are none of
those mischievous creatures called men.
Will you not get on my back and let me take
you there?”
The monkey thought it would be
fun to see a new country. So he jumped on
the jellyfish’s back, and off they started
across the water. When they had gone
about halfway, he began to fear that there
might be some hidden danger. It seemed
rather odd for jellyfish to come so far to
carry a stranger home simply to see the
country.
“My Jellyfish, why did you think of
coming for me?”
“My master, the king of the
dragons, sent me to get you,” answered the
jellyfish.
“He wants to give your liver as
medicine to the queen.”
“Oh, that’s your little game, is it?”
thought the monkey, but he kept his
thoughts to himself, and only said, “Nothing
could please me better than to be of service
to the king and queen. But I left my liver
hanging on a branch of that big tree where
you first saw me. A liver is heavy to carry
about so I generally take mine out and play
about without it. We shall have to go back
for it.”
The jellyfish agreed that there was
nothing else to do. The silly creature did not
see that the monkey was only fooling him in
order to save his life and his liver.
When they reached the shore
again, the monkey bounded off the
jellyfish’s back and was up the tree in less
than a minute. Then he said: “I do not see
my liver here. Perhaps somebody has taken
it away. I will look for it. Go back and tell
your master what has happened. He may
become very anxious if you did not get
home before dark.”
So the jellyfish started home. When
he told the king of the dragons what
happened, the king was so angry and said:
“Away with this fellow. Take him and beat
him to a pulp. Do not let a single bone
remain unbroken in his body.”
The officers seized the unfortunate
jellyfish and beat him as the king had
commanded. That is the reason why, to this
very day, jellyfish have no bones.
When the young queen found she
could not have the monkey’s liver, she made
up her mind to get well without it.
