Long ago, there lived a wolf in a forest. A small river flowed through the forest. The river flowed through the hills.
Once the wolf was drinking water at the river up the hills..He saw a lamb drinking water from the same river down the hills. The wolf wanted to eat the lamb. He thought of a plan. So, he shouted down at the lamb, "How dare you make the water dirty I am drinking?"
"You must be mistaken, sir," said the poor lamb gently. "How can I be making your water dirty, since it flows from you to me and not from me to you?"
As the wolf just wanted to eat the lamb,so he continued the discusssion so that he lands with fight with a lamb.
He said to the lamb, "Do you remember you used foul word and abused me just a year ago?".
"But, sir," replied the lamb in a trembling voice, "I wasn't even born a year ago."
"Shut up, you fool," shouted the wolf again. "Do you think I'm a fool? If it was not you, then it must have been your father, who abused me long ago.”
"At the most, I can apologise on behalf of my erring father if he at all ever did so," pleaded the lamb trembling.
"I think you're the kind of fellow who first commits a sin and then tries to argue it out. Let me teach you and your family a good lesson", saying this the wolf jumped upon the poor lamb and tore it to pieces and ate it.
