伊索寓言:狮子与农夫
The Lion in a Farmyard
A LION entered a farmyard. The Farmer, wishing to catch him, shut the gate. When the Lion found that he could not escape, he flew upon the sheep and killed them, and then attacked the oxen. The Farmer, beginning to be alarmed for his own safety, opened the gate and released the Lion. On his departure the Farmer grievously lamented the destruction of his sheep and oxen, but his wife, who had been a spectator to all that took place, said, "On my word, you are rightly served, for how could you for a moment think of shutting up a Lion along with you in your farmyard when you know that you shake in your shoes if you only hear his roar at a distance?'
狮子与农夫
有只狮子闯到农夫家的畜圈里,农夫想要捉住他,马上把院子的大门紧紧关上了。狮子因跑不出去,便先咬死了一些羊,随后又朝那些牛冲去。农夫害怕自身难保,便将门打开,让狮子出去。狮子逃走之后,妻子对悲 不已的丈夫说:「你活该!人们都远离可怕的狮子,你为甚么还要把他关起来呢?」
这个故事带出的启示就是:去激怒比自己更强大的人,必然会自讨苦吃。
