伊索寓言:號兵
The Trumpeter Taken Prisoner
A Trumpeter during a battle ventured too near the enemy and was captured by them. They were about to proceed to put him to death when he begged them to hear his plea for mercy. “I do not fight,” said he, “and indeed carry no weapon; I only blow this trumpet, and surely that cannot harm you; then why should you kill me?”
“You may not fight yourself,” said the others, “but you encourage and guide your men to the fight.”
Words may be deeds.
號兵
從前,有個號兵,正當他吹集合號時,被敵人抓獲了,他大聲叫道:「各位,請不要無緣無故地殺我。因為我沒有殺害你方任何人,我僅有這把銅號,沒有任何武器。」敵人卻對他說道:「正因為這樣,你就更應(yīng)當被殺死,你自己雖沒打仗,可你召集所有士兵來攻打我們?!?/p>
這個故事帶出的啟示就是:人們更痛恨那些慫恿他人作惡的人。
