THE HARE AND THE HOUND.
A Hound having started a Hare from his form, after a long run, gave up the chase. A Goat-herd seeing him stop, mocked him, saying, "The little one is the best runner of the two." The Hound replied, "You do not see the difference between us: I was only running for a dinner, but he, for his life."
THE SHEPHERD AND THE DOG.
A Shepherd penning his sheep in the fold for the night, was about to shut up a wolf with them, when his Dog perceiving the wolf, said, "Master, how can you expect the sheep to be safe if you admit a wolf into the fold?"
