THE SHEPHERD AND THE WOLF.

A Shepherd once found the whelp of a Wolf, and brought it up, and after awhile taught it to steal lambs from the neighbouring flocks. The Wolf having shown himself an apt pupil, said to the Shepherd, "Since you have taught me to steal, you must keep a sharp look-out, or you will lose some of your own flock."
