One day Hyena went together with Hare to collect honey in the forest where men used to hang their beehives from the trees. Hare climbed the tree, extracted big lumps of combs full of honey from a beehive, and when he was full, said to the Hyena: 'Open your mouth and I will drop some honey into it'.

He asked the Hyena: 'How did you enjoy the honey?" 'Very, very much, my dear friend'. 'But remember', said hare, 'this is a kind of sweetness that must not be evacuated from your body'. 'Yes, I think it must be so; but how can one prevent it from going out?' 'I'll tell you what to do. I will stitch your waist together with your tail and you may be sure that no sweetness will come out'.
Hyena was so excited that he agreed. So, Hare stitched Hyena's waist and went on his way home. After some time, Hyena felt he needed to go for a long call but he could not do it. He lay on the ground in pain until his behind burst spraying stool all over.
