蚊子和獅子 The Gnat and the Lion(1 / 1)

一隻蚊子飛到獅子麵前,用挑釁的口氣說: “我根本不怕你,我比你厲害 !你不妨想想看,你有什麼本領呢?用你鋒利的爪子抓,用牙齒咬?隻有那些沒有素養的婦女在和別人爭吵中才會那麼做。我再說一遍:我比你厲害 !要不,咱們就比試一下? ”說完,蚊子就飛到獅子臉上,咬了他一口。獅子馬上用爪子開始在自己臉上亂抓,直到筋疲力盡,也沒有抓住蚊子,反而自己受了重傷。得意洋洋的蚊子高唱著凱歌飛走了。可是,被勝利衝昏頭腦的蚊子沒有注意到自己身後的蜘蛛,不久之後就淪為蜘蛛的盤中餐了。臨死前的蚊子無可奈何地悲歎道: “我是多麼可悲啊!剛戰勝了最強大的對手,卻敗給了微不足道的蜘蛛。 ”

不管你如何吹噓你自己,總有被揭露的那一天。

A Gnat d said to a Lion,“I do fear you,rohan I am. For irength sist? You scratch with your d bite with your teeth an a woman in her quarrels. I repeat that I am altogether more powerful than you;and if you doubt it,let us .ght and see who will quer.” The Gnat,having sounded his horn, fastehe Lion and stung him orils as of the face devoid of hair. While trying to crush him,the Lion tore himself with his til he punished himself severely. The Gnat thus prevailed over the Lion,and,buzzing about in a song of triumph,flew away. But shortly afterwards he begled in the meshes of a d was eaten by a spider. He greatly lamee,sayihat I, ar successfully with the hugest beasts,should perish myself from this spider,the most insiderable of is!”
