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 mother’s milk is both food and drink to me. Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, Well! I won’t remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations. The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
