The Hare and the Hound

By AESOP

A HOUND started a Hare from his lair, but after a long run, gave up the chase.

A goat-herd seeing him stop, mocked him, saying "The little one is the best runner of the two."

The Hound replied,

 

"You do not see the difference between us: I was only running for a dinner, but he for his life."
