how could it be more fearful than i am? i must find out about it, the lion mused as it moved closer to the farmer, hoping to learn more about this night that was even more frightening than itself.it was even darker when they reached home. since the farmer continued to mistake the lion for his donkey, he tied it in a corner outside his house before he went to bed. that night, the lion stayed out in the cold, starving, petrified and not knowing what to expect of the night when morning dawned. it believed that the farmer was the night.early the next morning, before dawn broke, the farmer got up and took his donkey to the fields. on the way, another lion passed by and found it hilarious to see a lion obediently following a farmer. it then approached the captive lion and asked, what are you doing? why are you walking behind this man?shh! keep your voice down and leave quickly. dont you know that this being walking in front is something called the night. hes very terrible. last night, he beat me and shackled me, leaving me cold and starving the entire night. i have no idea where hes taking me now. run along or your life will be in danger!_1once upon a tine, there lived a rich man. he had a servant. he and the servant loved wine and good food very much. each tine the rich man left his home; the servant would drink the wine and eat up all the nice food in the house. the rich man knew what his servant did, but he had never caught his servant doing that.one morning, when he left home, he said to the servant, here are tow bottles of poison and some nice food in the house. you must take care of them. with these words, he went out.but the servant knew what the rich man had said was untrue. after the rich man was away from his home, he enjoyed a nice meal. because he drank too much, he was drunk and fell to the ground. when the rich man came back, he couldnt find his food and his wine. he became very angry. he woke theservant up. but the servant told his story very well. he said a cat had eaten up everything. he was afraid to be punished, so he drank the poison to kill himself.once upon a time, there was a wolf. the wolf was maimed . he couldnt out to eat.he was very hungry and thirsty. he saw a sheep.if you bring me the water, he said, i will find to get some food. but the sheep said , if i bring you the water, then i will be your food. once upon a time, a mountain shaked .people came from far and near to see what would happen.a river will be appear. a people said .will soon have a dragon appear. another man said .after the day, a mouse jumped out from there.bigheadall the kids make fun of methe boy cried to his mother.they say i have a big headi havent got one,use your hat. 10the thirsty pigeona pigeon, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders.zeal should not outrun discretion. the raven and the swana raven saw a swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. supposing that the swans splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam, the raven left the altars in theneighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. but cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.change of habit cannot alter nature. the goat and the goatherd a goatherd had sought to bring back a stray goat to his flock. he whistled and sounded his horn in vain; the straggler paid no attention to the summons. at last the goatherd threw a stone, and breaking its horn, begged the goat not to tell his master. the goat replied, why, you silly fellow, the horn will speak though i be silent.do not attempt to hide things which cannot be hid. the miser 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 wolfs 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 mothers milk is both food and drink to me. upon which the wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, well! i wont remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations.the tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny. the bat and the weaselsa 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.it is wise to turn circumstances to good account.
