Nishad turned sympathetic towards Mr Nath seeing his gaunt appearance. His attitude changed further when he came to know that he used to give regular tips to Ramesh for bringing his food. Then he also remembered his mother's words that Mr Nath was a polite man.

Dear Kunal,

How are you? It's been so long since we've met.

I was actually thinking to meet with you when my father broke this news to me.

Did you know Delhi book fare is just 7 days away?

I hope you're free on next Saturday.

Remember how much fun we had last year?

I also heard that this year there will more stalls than the previous year.

We can also look for the book you've been searching for the last two years.

They also are putting more food stalls this year.

I know how much you love to eat.

So, let me know.

Sincerely

Rajiv

Jody was Penny's son. Jody's father, Penny accidently got bitten by a rattlesnake. To save his father Jody and his father killed a doe and used it's liver and heart to draw the poison out of his father's body. In my opinion Jody was a very responsible and caring boy. He had a kind heart and practical mind. He took the responsibility of raising a fawn just because they had killed the fawn's mother to draw poison from his father body. He also got ready to sacrifice his own milk just for the sake of a dear. 

Everyone around the king was talking about hilsa fish. This had infuriated the king so he didn’t want anyone to talk about the Hilsa fish.

Elocution is the study of formal speaking in pronunciation, grammar, style, and tone as well as the idea and practice of effective speech and its forms. It stems from the idea that while communication is symbolic, sounds are final and compelling.

On meeting a mynah, Golu asks what does a crocodile eats for dinner. Most noteworthy, Golu had no experience of a crocodile. He had never before seen a crocodile and had no idea about its diet. Consequently, Golu began to grow more and more curious regarding the crocodile and its eating habit. In order to search for the answer, Golu decided to visit the great Limpopo river due to the advice given by the mynah.

Bishop Always Ready to Help Others
The Bishop is always ready to help the needy pa-sons of his parish. He goes to attend to Marie’s mother who is feeling poorly. He is out in cold without supper. He sells his salt cellars to help Mere Gringoire to pay her rents. His sister Persome feels that her brother is the dupe of every idle vagabond and old lying woman. He has sold his land, his furniture and spent all his savings to help others. Persome feels that her brother’s generosity and innocence is being misused by the people of his parish. But the Bishop thinks that this world is full of suffering and he can do very little to help the sufferers.

Convict Enters Stealthily with a Knife
The convict enters with a long knife and seizes the Bishop from behind. He warns the Bishop not to play any trick with him. He is too old a bird to be caught with chaff. Persome is frightened when she sees a knife in his hand. The convict is staring at them like a wild beast. The Bishop asks Persome to give company to the guest at supper. The convict eats greedily and throws a bone on the floor. Persome leaves the Bishop with the convict and goes to her room. Then the convict narrates his story.

Convict Narrates His Tragic Story
Once the convict had a little hut and a wife. Then came the bad year. He was out of job and had no money. His wife Jeanette fell ill. She was dying. He stole to buy her food. He was arrested. He pleaded to them why he stole but they laughed at him. He was sentenced to ten years in the prison hulks. The night he was sentenced, he was told that Jeanette was dead.

Life in ‘Hell’
He was no more a man now. He became a wild beast. The jail employees chained him like a wild beast. They lashed him like a hound. He was fed on filth and covered with vermin. They took away his soul and gave a devil in its place. But one day they were careless and he escaped.

Convict Steals Bishop’s Silver Candlesticks
The convict comes to know that he is with a Bishop. He warns him not to try to convert him. He doesn’t want any damn religion and the church. The Bishop asks him to go to bed. When left alone, the convict sees the silver candlesticks. He knows that they were given to the Bishop by his mother. His heart goes soft. But he soon hardens himself, steals the candlesticks and goes out into the darkness.

Convict is Caught and Brought Back to Bishop
When Persome and the Bishop get up next morning, they find the candlesticks and the convict missing. Soon they hear a knocking. A sergeant enters with three soldiers and the convict in chains. The sergeant tells that they found him (convict) walking on the road with the candlesticks. They arrested him on suspicion. They identified the candlesticks of the Bishop and so they brought them there to him. The Bishop saves the convict by declaring that those candlesticks were given to him as a gift. The convict is freed again.

Convict is Transformed
The Bishop saves the convict from going to “hell” again. This leaves a deep impression on the convict. He is a transformed man now. He is no more a wild beast. He sobs and repents. The Bishop gives him the candlesticks and the convict takes them in absolute amazement. The Bishop shows him a very lonely path through the woods at the back of his cottage leading to Paris. The soldiers don’t like lonely paths at night. The Bishop blesses the convict and tells him that “this poor body is the Temple of the Living God”.
