The Hunter And The Horseman
Aesop Fable: The Hunter And The Horseman
A certain hunter, having snared a hare, placed it upon
his shoulders and set out homewards. On his way he met a
man on horseback who begged the hare of him, under the
pretense of purchasing it. However, when the Horseman
got the hare, he rode off as fast as he could.
The Hunter
ran after him, as if he was sure of overtaking him, but the
Horseman increased more and more the distance between
them. The Hunter, sorely against his will, called out to him
and said, "Get along with you! for I will now make you a
present of the hare."
