The Fawn and His Father
A YOUNG FAWN once said to his Father, "You are larger than a dog, and swifter, and more used to running, and you have your horns as a defense; why, then, O Father! do the hounds frighten you so?" He smiled, and said: "I know full well, my son, that all you say is true. I have the advantages you mention, but when I hear even the bark of a single dog I feel ready to faint, and fly away as fast as I can."
小鹿和它的爸爸
一只小鹿对爸爸说:"你比狗大,灵活,更善于奔跑,甚至还有角可以用来防御,那为什么猎犬会让你感到害怕?"爸爸笑到:"我了解,我的孩子,你说的都是真的。我拥有以上你提到的优点,但当我听到哪怕是一只狗的吠叫,我就会感到头昏,然后能跑多快就跑多快。"
