Aesop's Fables: The lion and the three oxen
Aesop's Fables
|
Three oxen grazing always together.
A lion wanted to devour them, but being together three oxen prevented him doing so, because the fight against the three at the same time put it in disadvantage.
Then with cunning resorted to anger them together with perfidious humbug, separating them from each other.
And thus, not be already attached, it devoured them quietly, one by one.
