The Lioness
|
A CONTROVERSY prevailed among the beasts of the field as to which
of the animals deserved the most credit for producing the
greatest number of whelps at a birth. They rushed clamorously
into the presence of the Lioness and demanded of her the
settlement of the dispute. 'And you,' they said, 'how many sons
have you at a birth?' The Lioness laughed at them, and said:
'Why! I have only one; but that one is altogether a thoroughbred
Lion.'
The value is in the worth, not in the number.
