Read the following outlines and develop them into a complete story. Give
a suitable title to it.
Two women came to King Solomon with a
child, each claiming to be the child’s mother—Solomon ordered the child to be
but in two—each to be given one half—one woman wailed and threw herself at the
feet of the King requesting him to give the child alive to the other woman—the
child was handed over to the real mother.
Answer:
Judgment of King Solomon
Once two quarrelling women came to
King Solomon with a baby. Each of them claimed to be the child’s mother.
Solomon asked them different questions to decide the dispute but it came to
nothing. Finding no other way to solve the problem Solomon ordered to cut the
child in two halves. An executioner was sent for. Solomon said to the
executioner, “Cut the child in two equal halves and then give one half to each
of them. On hearing the order one of the women began to wail. Throwing herself
at the feet of the King she said, “Pleas, don’t cut the baby, give the child
alive to the other woman. I don’t claim the child.” The other woman remained
silent. So, King Solomon could make out who the real mother was and handed over
the child to the wailing woman who was the real mother. The false mother was
duly punished.
Good, it is easy for the weak student. Thanks.
