The Oxen and the Axle Trees
|
A HEAVY WAGON was being dragged along a country lane by a team of Oxen. The Axle-trees groaned and creaked terribly; whereupon the Oxen, turning round, thus addressed the wheels: 'Hullo there! why do you make so much noise? We bear all the labor, and we, not you, ought to cry out.'
Those who suffer most cry out the least.
