Subject: Wolf and Lamb
From: MMario

This reminds me a bit of the Aesop's Fable regarding "sour grapes" -- or maybe Hairy Fox & Co.

THE WOLF AND THE LAMB
"from the German" - 1842


A brook so gently flowing
Sped softly down the lawn
A lamb, his thirst allaying
Stood there at early morn
The water so refreshing
He drank and though no harm
A wolf froom thicket rushing
Seiz'd roughly on the lamb

How dare you spoil the water
Where I have stopped to drink
Oh wolf, you'll lose your anger
If you will only think
Oh, do not, do not harm me
Nor wear the sullen brow
For wolf, you stood above me
Upon the stream, you know

Well lamb, if I'm in error
I know you've done me wrong
A sland'rous tale last winter
I suffered from it long
And when I made inquiry
Found you the lie had told
Why wolf! A lie last winter?
I'm only four weeks old!

The lamb, so mild replying
He proved the wolf was wrong
But ah, the lamb so lovely
Was weak, the wolf was strong
He cried, It was your father!
And you his guilt must share
Nor waiting for an answer
Began the lamb to tear
