The man speaks quietly to the animals and soon they hurry off to collect branches, roots, twigs, and feathers for him. Frightened, but curious, the hare creeps closer. He watches the animals gather by the stable door and he wonders what they see. Finally, the hare gathers all his courage and hops into the stable. He finds a baby lying in a manger who inspires his sympathy and generosity, for here is someone even more vulnerable than himself, in need of a gift only he can give.
