伊索寓言
THE FARMER AND THE FOX
A Farmer was greatly annoyed by a Fox, which came prowling about his yard at night and carried off his fowls. So he set a trap for him and caught him; and in order to be revenged upon him, he tied a bunch of tow to his tail and set fire to it and let him go. As ill-luck would have it, however, the Fox made straight for the fields where the corn was standing ripe and ready for cutting. It quickly caught fire and was all burnt up, and the Farmer lost all his harvest.
Revenge is a two-edged sword.
农夫和狐狸
有个农夫受到了狐狸无尽的骚扰,因为狐狸经常在夜里到他的院子里偷鸡。于是,他设置了一个捕获狐狸的圈套。为了能狠狠地报复一下狐狸,农夫在狐狸尾巴上绑了一捆麻绳,然后点上火,让狐狸在院子里上窜下跳。然而,厄运却降临了,狐狸径直跑到农夫的田地里,正待收割的庄稼地迅即成一片火海。最终,农夫颗粒无收。
