The Lion and the Mouse.

A Lion was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Risingup in anger, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mousepiteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I wouldbe sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go. Ithappened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters,who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing hisroar, came up and gnawed the rope with his teeth, and, setting himfree, exclaimed: "You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to helpyou, not expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor; butnow you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits ona Lion."

No one is too weak to do good.
