The Rabbits and the Wolves
Within the memory of the youngest child there was a family of rabbits who lived near a pack of wolves . The wolves announced that they did not like the way the rabbits were living . (The wolves were crazy about the way they themselves were living, because it was the only way to live .)One night several wolves were killed in an earthquake and this was blamed on the rabbits , for it is well known that rabbits pound on the ground with their hind legs and cause earthquake . On another night one of the wolves was killed by a bolt of lightning and this was also blamed on the rabbits , for it is well known that lettuce-eaters cause lightning . The wolves threatened to civilize the rabbits if they didn’t behave ,and the rabbits decided to run away to a desert island . But the other animals who lived at a great distance ,shame them ,saying ,”You mast stay where you are and be brave . This is no world for escapists . If the wolves attack you ,we will come to you aid ,in all probability .”
So the rabbits continued to live near the wolves and one day there was a terrible flood which drowned a great many wolves .This was blamed on the rabbits .for it is well known that carrot-nibblers with long ears cause floods .The wolves descended on the rabbits, for there own good ,and imprisoned them in a dark cave ,for there own protection.
Guidance
The young leading the young , is like the blind leading the blind ; they will both fall into the ditch . The only sure guide is he who has often gone the road which you want to go .Let me be that guide ,who has gone all roads ,and who you can consequently point out to you the best . If you ask me why I went any of the roads myself . I will answer you very truly , that is for want of a good guide ;ill example invited me one way, and a good guide was wanting to show me a better ,But-if anybody , capable of advising me, had taken the same pains with me ,which I have taken ,and will continue to take with you ,I should have avoided many follies and inconveniences, which undirected youth ran me into.
