The Fighting Bulls And The Frog

by Aesop

　　Two Bulls were fighting furiously in a field, at one side ofwhich was a marsh. An old Frog living in the marsh, trembled ashe watched the fierce battle.

　　"What are you afraid of?" asked a young Frog.

　　"Do you not see," replied the old Frog, "that the Bull who isbeaten, will be driven away from the good forage up there to thereeds of this marsh, and we shall all be trampled into the mud?"

　　It turned out as the Frog had said. The beaten Bull was driven tothe marsh, where his great hoofs crushed the Frogs to death.

　　When the great fall out, the weak must suffer for it.
