When they resumed work, one of them got hold of a nail, climbed the stool and placing the head of the nail on the wall started hammering on the pointed side of the nail.

He pondered for a while and then called out to his companion, "Oh, Natha Singha, come and see. The person who has manufactured this nail is a fool. He has made this nail upside down."
