The Hares And The Frogs

---

The Hares once got together, and began to complain about their life:

“We perish from men, and from dogs, and from eagles, and from all the other beasts. It would be better to die at once than to live in fright and suffer. Come, let us drown ourselves!”

And the Hares raced away to drown themselves in a lake. The Frogs heard the Hares and plumped into the water. So one of the Hares said:

“Wait, boys! Let us put off the drowning! Evidently the Frogs are having a harder life than we: they are afraid even of us.”
