A Lion had been watching three Bullocks feeding in an open field. Unable to free himself, he filled the forest with his angry roaring. Do you not see, replied the old Frog, that the Bull who is beaten, will be driven away from the good forage up there to the reeds of this marsh, and we shall all be trampled into the mud? Strangely enough, a Wolf was lurking near and heard what the Goat had said. An Ant was first to take the stand, and was about to be cross-examined, when a wise old Bee addressed the Court. A Bull trampled him with his heavy hoofs. I can promise you a good time if you do. Please pull it out, he pleaded, groaning as if in pain. As for the Cat, he eats us. So be thankful, my child, that you escaped with your life, and, as long as you live, never judge people by their looks.
Do not tell others how to act unless you can set a good example.
