It failed several times.The King felt that spider would not make any more attempt as it had failed 9 times .

Answer 3: We know that no man is perfect. Even then we always hope of achieving success only. This is not always possible. Sometimes, we also meet with failure. Instead of being disappointed with ourselves, We must recognise our drawbacks and try to rectify our errors; which are the causes of our failures. We must never give up hope and keep on trying until we succeed.
