When he was hungry, he resolved to put a wedge into the spilt and move for lunch. There was a monkey from up a tree that was watching the workman who became inquisitive of the wedge. The monkey claimed down and went to the log. The animal tried harder to pull the wedge out but it did not yield. He rested on the log with legs on each side. The monkey prevailed with it tail dangling down through the split.
