The Fox And The Bramble
Aesop Fable: The Fox And The Bramble
A fox was mounting a hedge when he lost his footing and
caught hold of a Bramble to save himself. Having pricked
and grievously tom the soles of his feet, he accused the
Bramble because, when he had fled to her for assistance,
she had used him worse than the hedge itself.
The Bramble,
interrupting him, said, "But you really must have been out
of your senses to fasten yourself on me, who am myself
always accustomed to fasten upon others."
