Aesop's Fables by Aesop (trans: Townsend, George Fyler) より
“THE HERDSMAN AND THE LOST BULL.”

A Herdsman tending kine in a forest, lost a Bull-calf from the fold. After a long and fruitless search, he made a vow that, if he could only discover the thief who had stolen the Calf, he would offer a lamb in sacrifice to Hermes, Pan, and the Guardian Deities of the forest. Not long afterwards, as he ascended a small hillock, he saw at its foot a Lion feeding on the Calf. Terrified at the sight, he lifted his eyes and his hands to heaven, and said : “Just now I vowed to offer a lamb to the Guardian Deities of the forest if I could only find out who had robbed me ; but now that I have discovered the thief, I would willingly add a full-grown Bull to the Calf I have lost, if I may only secure my own escape from him in safety.”
