A Wolf had stolen a Lamb and was carrying it off to his lair to eat it. But his plans were very much changed when he met a Lion, who, without making any excuses, took the Lamb away from him.

The wolf stole a lamb and was about to take it back to the wolf's nest to eat it. But his wishful thinking failed. He met a lion, and the lion snatched the lamb without saying a word.

The wolf hurriedly ran to a safe distance, and then said in a very hurt tone:

"You don't have the right to take my property like this!"

The lion looked back and saw that the wolf was too far away, which was inconvenient to teach him a lesson. He said:

"Your property? Did you buy it, or did the shepherd give it to you? Please tell me, how did you get it?"

Getting ill-gotten wealth will cause disaster.

THE WOLF AND THE LION

A Wolf had stolen a Lamb and was carrying it off to his lair to eat it. But his plans were very much changed when he met a Lion, who, without making any excuses, took the Lamb away from him.

The Wolf made off to a safe distance, and then said in a much injured tone:

"You have no right to take my property like that!"

The Lion looked back, but as the Wolf was too far away to be taught a lesson without too much inconvenience, he said:

"Your property? Did you buy it, or did the Shepherd make you a gift of it? Pray tell me, how did you get it?"

What is evil won is evil lost.
