The Two Dogs^15
A man had two dogs: a Hound,
trained to assist him in his
sports, and a Housedog, taught
to watch the house. When he
returned home after a good day's
sport, he always gave the
Housedog a large share of his
spoil. The Hound, feeling much
aggrieved at this, reproached
his companion, saying, "It is
very hard to have all this
labor, while you, who do not
assist in the chase, luxuriate
on the fruits of my exertions."
The Housedog replied, "Do not
blame me, my friend, but find
fault with the master, who has
not taught me to labor, but to
depend for subsistence on the
labor of others."
Children are not to be blamed for
the faults of their parents.
