Once a lion became very thirsty and
came to a stream to quench his thirst. Suddenly he found a lamb drinking down
stream. The lion wanted to eat the flesh of the lamb. He hit upon a plan to
deceive the lamb and shouted, “You rogue, how dare you make water dirty for
me?” The lamb began to tremble in fear. He said, “Excuse me, sir, how can I
make the water dirty for you? You are drinking upstream and I am drinking
down.” The lion could not say anything to that but shouted, “Oh, I remember,
you called me bad names last year about this time.” “How can that be, sir?”
said the lamb meekly. “I was not even born then.” But the lion paid no heed to
this reply. He growled angrily, “Then it must be your father. And it made no
difference whether it was you or your father.” Saying so the lion sprang upon
the poor lamb and ate him up.
