The Doe And The Lion
Aesop Fable: The Doe And The Lion
A doe hard pressed by hunters sought refuge in a cave
belonging to a Lion. The Lion concealed himself on seeing
her approach, but when she was safe within the cave, sprang
upon her and tore her to pieces. "Woe is me," exclaimed the
Doe, "who have escaped from man, only to throw myself
into the mouth of a wild beast?"
In avoiding one evil, care must be taken not to fall into
another.
