The Hare and the Hound
        A HOUND started a Hare from his lair, but after a long run, gave
        up the chase.
        A goat-herd seeing him stop, mocked him, saying
        "The little one is the best runner of the two."
        The Hound
        replied, "You do not see the difference between us:
        I was only
        running for a dinner, but he for his life."
