So Ozma's big guards are more ornamental than useful,\u003cbr\u003eand no one realizes that better than the beasts themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne day, after everybody had left the Throne Room except the Cowardly\u003cbr\u003eLion and the Hungry Tiger, the Lion yawned and said to his friend:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I'm getting tired of this job.
