The Partridge And The Fowler
Aesop Fable: The Partridge And The Fowler
A fowler caught a Partridge and was about to kill it. The
Partridge earnestly begged him to spare his life, saying,
"Pray, master, permit me to live and I will entice many Partridges
to you in recompense for your mercy to me."
The
Fowler replied, "I shall now with less scruple take your life,
because you are willing to save it at the cost of betraying
your friends and relations."
