"You knew what i was when you picked me up"

There was Indian walking down the valley and then he saw a mountain he had climbed it when he had gotten to the top he had seen a snake. The Indian man froze and then the snake spoke i am hungry theirs no food up here carry me down to the valley please. The Indian said no i know what your kind are if i pick you up i will die. then the snake said i wont bite you i promise and then the Indian picked up the snake and he carried it down the mountain but once they reached down to the valley the Indian let go of the snake on the floor slowly and then the snake had struck him and bitten him. And the Indian asked why did you bite me ? the snake responded," you knew what i was when you picked me up".
