伊索寓言:号兵
The Trumpeter Taken Prisoner
A Trumpeter during a battle ventured too near the enemy and was captured by them. They were about to proceed to put him to death when he begged them to hear his plea for mercy. “I do not fight,” said he, “and indeed carry no weapon; I only blow this trumpet, and surely that cannot harm you; then why should you kill me?”
“You may not fight yourself,” said the others, “but you encourage and guide your men to the fight.”
Words may be deeds.
号兵
从前,有个号兵,正当他吹集合号时,被敌人抓获了,他大声叫道:「各位,请不要无缘无故地杀我。因为我没有杀害你方任何人,我仅有这把铜号,没有任何武器。」敌人却对他说道:「正因为这样,你就更应当被杀死,你自己虽没打仗,可你召集所有士兵来攻打我们。」
这个故事带出的启示就是:人们更痛恨那些怂恿他人作恶的人。
