The Four Oxen and the Lion A Lion used to prowl about a field in which Four Oxen used to dwell. Many a time he tried to attack them; but whenever he came near, they turned their tails to one another, so that whichever way he approached them he was met by the horns of one of them. At last, however, they fell a- quarreling among themselves, and each went off to pasture alone in a seperate corner of the field. Then the Lion attacked them
one by one and soon made an end to ALL four. United We Stand, Divided We Fall
