The Fawn and His Father 小鹿與他的父親
閱讀 : 次
A YOUNG FAWN once said to his Father, "You are larger than a
dog, and swifter, and more used to running, and you have your
horns as a defense; why, then, O Father! do the hounds frighten
you so?"
He smiled, and said: "I know full well, my son, that all you say
is true. I have the advantages you mention, but when I hear even
the bark of a single dog I feel ready to faint, and fly away as
fast as I can."
No arguments will give courage to the coward.
有一天，小鹿對公鹿說道，“父親，你怎么還怕狗呢？你比他高大，比他跑得更快，而 且還有很大的角用于自衛。”公鹿笑著說：“孩兒，你說得都對，可我只知道一點，一聽到 狗的叫聲，我就會不由自主地立刻逃跑。”
這故事說明，激勵那些天生膽小、軟
弱的人毫無用處。
