There are a lot of dangerous and terrible pests in Indian , but the tree- bees are the most terrible . They are
killers
Last year I was on holiday there . Riding along a road one sunny morning . I found the air above me
suddenly became thick with bees. Although it was hot , I went cold all over . To run away fast seemed the
only thing to do , but my horse was frightened , too. He jumped and kicked out in all directions to get rid of
the bees that were attacking him , and then threw me to the ground.
The Village was about half a mile away . I began to run . But by now I was covered from head to foot with
bees . They crawled all over me, stinging with terrible pain . I tore them away , but made room for others .
Each time I opened my lips for breath , more bees entered my mouth . I could hardly breathe . Then I
reached the village . I ran towards a house that was being built . As soon as the men working there saw the
bees , they ran for safety at top speed.
My eyes had completely closed . I fell into a pile of something soft . I pushed myself down into this until
my head and shoulders were covered . This made bees angry and they began to attack my legs . I struggled
but soon became tired out . The bees had won.

At last I was covered by two clever soldiers. They ran to a pile of dry grass and quickly surrounded me a
thick wall of fire and smoke until the bees were driven away . They remained with me – I later learned-
looking after me for the next three hours until a doctor was found and brought.
