The Wolf and The Lamb

          One hot day a thirsty wolf went to a stream for a drink. There he saw a sweet little lamb standing on the bank before him and drinking.

          “That’s a nice fat lamb,” thought the wolf, “she will give me a good meal.” Seeking an excuse for killing the lamb, the wolf began to pick a quarrel.

          “How dare you spoil the water from which I am drinking ” the wolf asked. “Can’t you see that I have come to drink here?”

          “I beg your pardon, sir,” said the little Jamb, “the water is running down from you to mc. How can I then make it dirty for you ”

"Well  then,” said the wolf, “why did you call me bad names last year?”
“Oh, sir,” said the poor lamb, “a year ago was not born.”

          Then the wolf into a rage and Said, “Oh, you sheep are all the same.
don’t care, I am very hungry. I must have food.” So saying, the wolf seized the poor lamb and ate her up.

Moral: Evil-doers always find excuses.
