THE LION AND THE RAT



🦁🐀

We must, as much as we can, oblige everyone:
We often need a smaller one than ourselves.
From this truth, two Fables will be authentic,
Both the thing in evidence abounds.
Between the legs of a Lion
A Rat came out of the ground stunned enough.
The Animal King, on this occasion,
Show what he was, and give him life.
This blessing was not lost.
Has anyone ever believed
That a Lion of a Rat had to deal?
However, he came out of the forests
This Lion was caught in nets
Whose roars could not undo him?
Sir Rat ran up and did so much by his teeth
That a gnawed mesh took away all the work,
Patience and length of time
Do more than force or rage.
