In the end, the man decided to fill the pit. “The donkey is at the end of his life anyway, I should bury him here. And this pit too needs to be filled. I can do both the things at once!” the man thought. So, he went and brought a shovel. The man began to dig the ground. He was hard at work.

All through this time, the donkey kept crying and wailing. As the man dug the ground, he kept throwing the dirt into the pit. After some time, the donkey’s wails stopped. When the man stopped for a short rest, after a while, what he saw surprised him. “Oh, my donkey. You did not lose hope!” The man realized that when he was throwing the dirt on the donkey, the donkey shook the dirt off. And in doing so, the dirt started accumulating on the ground.
