  • An Ass1, feeding in a meadow, saw a Wolf approaching to seize him, and immediately pretended to be lame2. The Wolf, coming up, inquired the cause of his lameness3. The Ass said that he had a thorn in his foot, and requested the Wolf to pull it out. The Wolf consenting, the Ass with his heels kicked his teeth into his mouth, and galloped4 away. The Wolf said: "I am rightly served, for why did I attempt the art of healing, when my father only taught me the trade of a butcher?"

    Every one to his trade.
