第一篇The Wolf and the Lamb
WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to
lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the
Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah,
last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a
mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I
have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my
well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as
yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which
the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain
supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."
The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
第二篇The Bat and the Weasels
A BAT who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel
pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he
was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he
was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. Shortly
afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by
another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The
Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured
him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time
escaped.
