Description
-
A young shephard found life in the pasture very dull. He thought up a plan to amuse himself. His master told him to call for help if a wolf attacks the flock, and the villagers would drive it away. So, though he had seen no wolf, he ran to the village crying Wolf! Wolf! The villagers ran to assist but found the boy laughing at the trick he had played on them. A few days later the boy again called to the villagers, and again came to help, only to be laughed at. Then one day a wolf really did come to kill the sheep, and the boy ran to the village shouted Wolf! Wolf! But the villagers did not run to help him, as they thought it was another trick. The wolf killed many of the sheep and got away.
