The king of frogs realized, that only he among the frogs remained alive. He assured the cobra that if he let him leave the well, he will bring frogs from other wells, so that the cobra would be able to satisfy his hunger.
The cobra got greedy, and let the king of frogs go. But even after his anxious wait for several days, the king of frogs did not return.
After a long time of waiting, the cobra requested a female lizard that lived in the walls of the well, to request the king of frogs to return, as he could not bear the separation of his dear friend.
The lizard conveyed the message to the king of frogs, who replied, "Madam, please convey to him that I will never return to the well again. He is starved, and a starving person can be cruel, and go to any extent of sin."
