Two servants served a household. The mistress of the house was an early riser. She rose with the first crowing of the cock and woke up the servants. The servants were sore. They wanted to enjoy prolonged sleeping hours.
"The cock is the main culprit. It crows and wakes up the mistress," accused one.
"Yes, let us kill the cock," suggested the other.
They actually killed the cock next day.
Devoid of the crowing signal the mistress got up earlier from her sleep. She at once roused the servants. Thus, the servants had to undergo longer working hours now.
Moral: Lazy people take the most pains.
