It's almost noon, yet the children seem tired from the previous day's picnic. The narrator dreams of a more enjoyable picnic on a beautiful hillside, urging the children to wake up. The children, however, are still lost in their dreams.

This paragraph delves into the theme of laziness, personified by the character 'Bridge' and the villagers. The narrator mocks the villagers for their laziness, likening them to a sloth. A conversation ensues about the reluctance to perform simple tasks such as bringing water from the well or the pond due to the perceived distance and effort. The character 'Bridge' boasts about his laziness, explaining how he avoids unnecessary actions like making the bed or washing dishes. The narrative takes a dramatic turn when a fire breaks out on the roof. Initially, the characters are dismissive, expecting the rain or wind to extinguish the fire.
