The Stag And The Fawn

---

A Fawn once said to a Stag:

“Father, you are larger and fleeter than the dogs, and, besides, you have huge antlers for defence; why, then, are you so afraid of the dogs?”

The Stag laughed, and said:

“You speak the truth, my child. The trouble is,—the moment I hear the dogs bark, I run before I have time to think.”
