伊索寓言:狼与母山羊
The Wolf and the Crane
A WOLF who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed: "Why, you have surely already had a sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf."
In serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains.
狼与母山羊
母山羊在陡峭的山崖上吃草,狼无法捉到他,便劝说她赶快下来,免得一不小心掉进山谷里,还说在自己身边的草地好得多,青草茂盛鲜嫩,还有许多花。母山羊回答说,「你不是真心喊我去吃草,而是让我去填饱你的肚子。」
这个故事带出的启示就是:尽管坏人老奸巨滑,但在聪明人面前,他们的诡计仍是枉费心机。
