牧羊人和山羊寓言故事

  有一天,牧羊人趕著羊群回到羊圈裡,其中有一隻山羊失散了,並且拒絕回到羊群中。牧羊人費了好長時間叫她回來,既大聲喊叫,又衝她吹口哨,但是山羊根本沒注意到他。於是,牧羊人只得衝她扔了一塊石頭,正巧打斷了山羊的一隻羊角。驚慌中,牧羊人肯求山羊不要告訴主人,可山羊卻說:“你這個愚蠢的傢伙,即使我不說,我的角也會告訴他事實呀。”

  THE GOATHERD AND THE GOAT

  A Goatherd was one day gathering his flock to return to the fold,when one of his goats strayed and refused to join the rest.He tried for a long time to get her to return by calling and whistling to her,but the Goat took no notice of him at all;SO at last he threw a stone at her and broke one of her horns.In dismay,he begged her not to tell his master:but she replied,“You silly fellow,my horn would cry aloud even if I held my tongue.”

  It’s no use trying to hide what can’t be hidden.
