English translation (by Mike Tu Awng) Long time ago, there was a rich man, and he was looking for a horse-cart driver to drive his cart. Three people came for the job. When he selected from the three, he let them drive their own cart, saying, "Let me ride on you cart". When the rich man rode the first one, the cart went very fast. The horses ran so fast that the rich man was scared and he even fell off from the cart. And he said, "I cannot take this person. He is not suitable for me". Then, he entered into another cart. That cart was too fast at a time and too slow at another time. The rich man said again, "This man too is not good enough for me". He did not take the person. The last person drove steadily stopping where he needed to stop. The rich man chose this man to be his horse-cart driver.
