THE HORSE AND THE STAG
Once upon a time there was a horse had the whole range of a meadow to himself; but a Stag coming and damaging the pasture, the Horse, anxious to have his revenge, asked a Man if he could could assist him in punishing the Stag. The man was very intelligent and he said yes I will help you, “only let me put a bit in your mouth, and get upon your back, and I will find the weapons.” The Horse agreed, and the Man mounted accordingly; but instead of getting his revenge, the Horse has been from that time forward the slave of Man.
Moral : Revenge is too dearly purchased at the price of liberty
