The Horse And The Dog
A DOG and a Horse, which served the same peasant, began to discuss each other’s merits, one day.
” How grand we are, to be sure ! ” says Barbos. ” I shouldn’t be sorry if they were to turn you out of the farmyard. A noble service, indeed, to plough or to draw a cart ! And I ‘ve never heard of any other proof of your merit. How can you possibly compare yourself with me? I rest neither by day nor by night. In the daytime I watch the cattle in the meadows ; by night I guard the house.”
” Quite true,” replied the Horse. ” What you say is perfectly correct. Only remember that, if it weren’t for my ploughing, you wouldn’t have anything at all to guard here.”
