One hot and thirsty day in the height of summer a Lion and a Boar came down to a little spring at the same moment to drink.In a trice they were quarrelling as to who should drink first.The quarrel soon became a fight and they attacked one another with the utmost fury.Presently, stopping for a moment to take breath, they saw some vultures seated on a rock above evidently waiting for one of them to be killed, when they would fly down and feed upon the carcase.The sight sobered them at once, and they made up their quarrel, saying, "We had much better be friends than fight and be eaten by vultures."
