One day as the Lion walked proudly down a forest aisle, and the animals respectfully made way for him, an Ass brayed a scornful remark as he passed. Wise Judge Hornet quickly understood why they did so: They knew they could not build a honey comb and fill it with honey. He looked the Toad over very carefully. Mr. Toad, he said, I've been told that you cure anything! The Miller felt a bit vexed, but to be agreeable he told the Boy to climb up behind him. They had no sooner started out again than a loud shout went up from another company of people on the road. Becoming thirsty on the way, he filled his horn at a spring, and was about to drink. When that Lion leaves, I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget.
Greatness has its penalties.
