So the following day the landlord went into the forest. When Aniz spotted him, his eyes blazed with hatred. Before the landlord could open his mouth, Aniz took out his flute and began playing. All the beasts of the forest rabbits, bears, snakes, wolves, foxes and many different
sorts of birds -- came and encircled the landlord. Terror drove the last drop of color from his cheeks. He fell to his knees in despair and entreated Aniz, My lord, save me ! Save me!
Landlord! Do you remember Aniz? At one sound from my flute, these animals will eat you alive!
Alas... Ah! My lord! Dont treat me as once I treated you! He lay prostrate at Aniz feet and sobbed, I promise to give you anything you want. Dont let them... Im so scared....
Very well. I will spare your wretched life this once. But you must never bully poor folk again! If you dont turn over a new leaf, I wont be so easy on you next time. And when you get home, you must give half of all your worldly goods to the poor villagers. Is that clear?
Yes! Yes! The landlord rose to his feet and fled in abject terror. He followed Aniz instructions and distributed half of his estate to the poor. That made Aniz more popular than ever.
