The Ass, the Fox, and the Lion 驢子、狐貍與獅子
THE ASS and the Fox, having entered into partnership together for
their mutual protection, went out into the forest to hunt. They
had not proceeded far when they met a Lion. The Fox, seeing
imminent danger, approached the Lion and promised to contrive
for him the capture of the Ass if the Lion would pledge his word
not to harm the Fox. Then, upon assuring the Ass that he would
not be injured, the Fox led him to a deep pit and arranged that he
should fall into it. The Lion, seeing that the Ass was secured,
immediately clutched the Fox, and attacked the Ass at his leisure.
驢子與狐貍倆合伙去打獵。他們突然遇見了獅子,狐貍見大事不妙,立即跑到獅子面 前,許諾把驢子交給他,只要自己免于危險。獅子答應可以,狐貍便引誘驢子掉進了一個陷 阱里。獅子見驢子已不能再逃跑,便立即先抓住狐貍吃了,然后再去吃驢子。
這是說,那些出賣朋友,背叛友誼的人也得不到好下場。
