The Hares and the Frogs
    
    
      The Hares were so persecuted by the other beasts, they did not
    know where to go.  As soon as they saw a single animal approach
    them, off they used to run.  One day they saw a troop of wild
    Horses stampeding about, and in quite a panic all the Hares
    scuttled off to a lake hard by, determined to drown themselves
    rather than live in such a continual state of fear.  But just as
    they got near the bank of the lake, a troop of Frogs, frightened
    in their turn by the approach of the Hares scuttled off, and
    jumped into the water.  "Truly," said one of the Hares, "things
    are not so bad as they seem:
    
    	
    	"There is always someone worse off than yourself."
