The Crab and Its Mother
The Crab and Its MotherA CRAB said to her son, "Why do you walk so one-sided, my child?
It is far more becoming to go straight forward."
The young Crab
replied:
"Quite true, dear Mother; and if you will show me the
straight way, I will promise to walk in it."
The Mother tried in
vain, and submitted without remonstrance to the reproof of her
child.
Example is more powerful than precept.
