A schoolteacher used to take a short nap every afternoon.<>
When his pupils asked him why he did so, he said that he went to dreamland to meet ancient sages.<>
One extremely hot day some of the pupils fell asleep in the afternoon.<>
When the school-teacher chided them, they said:<>
“We went to meet the sages in dreamland.”<>
“What did they say?” demanded the teacher.<>
“We asked them if a school- teacher came there every afternoon, but they said they had seen no such person.”<>
