| THE SHEPHERD BOY AND THE WOLF |
A Shepherd Boy tended his lord’s Sheep almost a dull timberland not a long way from the town. Before long he discovered life in the field very dull. Everything he could do to entertain himself was to converse with his canine or play on his shepherd’s pipe. One day as he sat viewing the Sheep and the calm backwoods, and figuring what he would do should he see a Wolf, he thought of a plan to delight himself.
His Master had instructed him to call for help should a Wolf assault the group and the Villagers would push it away. So now, however, he had not seen whatever even resembled a Wolf, he kept running toward the town yelling as loud as possible, “Wolf! Wolf!”
As he expected, the Villagers who heard the cry dropped their work and kept running in extraordinary fervor to the field. Be that as it may, when they got there they found the Boy bent over with giggling at the trap he had played on them.
A couple of days after the fact the Shepherd Boy again yelled, “Wolf! Wolf!” Again the Villagers rushed to support him, just to be giggled at once more. At that point, one night as the sun was setting behind the woodland and the shadows were crawling out over the field, a Wolf truly did spring from the underbrush and fall upon the Sheep.
In dread, the Boy kept running toward the town yelling “Wolf! Wolf!” In any case, however, the Villagers heard the cry, they didn’t race to help him as they had previously. “He can’t trick us once more,” they said. The Wolf murdered a large number of the Boy’s sheep and afterward slipped away into the woodland.
