英语寓言故事-The Fawn and His Mother

2008-02-05来源:
A YOUNG FAWN once said to his Mother, "You are larger than a dog,
and swifter, and more used to running, and you have your horns as
a defense; why, then, O Mother! do the hounds frighten you so?"
She smiled, and said:
"I know full well, my son, that all you say
is true.
I have the advantages you mention, but when I hear even
the bark of a single dog I feel ready to faint, and fly away as
fast as I can."


No arguments will give courage to the coward.
