Aesop's Fables:
The Wolf and the Lamb
One day, the Wolf met a lamb who was too far from his home. He decided not to eat the Lamb at once, but tried to explain why he had the right to eat him. This is what he said: “Little one, I am very angry with you, because last year you said something very bad about me!”
“Really?” said the Lamb. “I was not even born then.”
Then the Wolf said, “You eat the grass from my pasture!”
“No, good sir,” the Lamb replied. “I have never tasted grass in my life.”
Again, the Wolf said: “You drink the water from my well!”
“No,” the Lamb cried. “I have never drunk water. My mother's milk is both food and drink to me.”
Then the Wolf took him and ate him. “Well, I will not stay without supper,” he said, “even though you could see through all my lies.”
Moral: A cruel person will always find an excuse for cruelty.
