Aesop's Fables

The Fox Who Served A Lion

A Lion had a Fox to attend on him, and whenever they went hunting the Fox found the prey and the Lion fell upon it and killed it, and then they divided it between them in certain proportions.
      
      But the Lion always got a very large share, and the Fox a very small one, which didn't please the latter at all; so he determined to set up on his own account.
      
      He began by trying to steal a lamb from a flock of sheep: but the shepherd saw him and set his dogs on him.
      
      The hunter was now the hunted, and was very soon caught and despatched by the dogs.

Moral: Better servitude with safety than freedom with danger.
