[example 2]
(proverb) Take pity upon a cucumber. Nobody would take pity upon a cucumber. If someone is thirsty, he would eat it immediately. Even if you did take pity upon it, and, for example, wanted to keep it, you would sooner or later eat it, if you were thirsty. This is said about a man who takes pity on a pretty girl for a while. He might do some favors for her in good faith. But, eventually he will make love to her. Someone else would say about this situation that nobody takes pity on a cucumber – nobody would keep his hands off a pretty girl, even if he had pity upon her. In Balinese, pity implies not just a feeling, but also the action of helping the one who is pitied.
