the wolf and the lamb - tupac, lafontaine fables lyrics

[length:01:08.04]
[00:00.00]the wolf and lamb. (i,10)
[00:10.38]strength upon right with ease can trample
[00:12.73] as will appear by this example
[00:14.05] a gentle lamb to quench his thirst
[00:15.99]    came to a calm, transparent brook ;
[00:17.32] a hungry wolf, in hour accurst
[00:19.23] that spot for his adventures took :
[00:20.50] “ rash creature ! ” cried he in. a rage
[00:22.70]“ to trouble thus the waters as they flow
[00:24.38] while i my thirst assuage ;
[00:25.92]i’ll punish thee, insulting little foe ! ”
[00:27.60]“ i pray your majesty, ” the lamb replied
[00:29.20]“ not to be angry, but observe the tide
[00:31.18] you stand above, and i below ;
[00:33.06] the water comes to me from you :
[00:34.44] how can i trouble what you drink ? ”
[00:35.63] “ but i insist, ” he said, “ you do :
[00:37.00] and i remember, now i think
[00:38.48] a year ago you treated me with scorn. ”
[00:40.46] “ how could i ? i was not then born, ”
[00:42.26]replied the lamb. “ perhaps, ” said wolf—“ agreed ;
[00:44.24]it was your brother then, who was so bold. ”
[00:46.64] “ i have no brother, sire, indeed. ”
[00:48.72] “ ’twas some one of your family, i’m told
[00:51.33] for all of you dislike my breed
[00:52.53] yourselves, your shepherds, and your curs ;
[00:54.00] but i’ll have vengeance, my fine sirs ! ”
[00:55.66]he said, not caring with more words to meet him
[00:58.05]and bore the lamb into the wood to eat him
