Sayfa 206 / 274

A Goatherd was one day gathering his flock to return to the fold,

when one of his goats strayed and refused to join the rest. He

tried for a long time to get her to return by calling and

whistling to her, but the Goat took no notice of him at all; so

at last he threw a stone at her and broke one of her horns. In

dismay, he begged her not to tell his master: but she replied,

"You silly fellow, my horn would cry aloud even if I held my

tongue."

It's no use trying to hide what can't be hidden.
