The Hares were so persecuted by the other beasts; they did not know where to go. As soon as they saw a single animal approach them, off they used to run. One day they saw a troop of wild horses stampeding about, and in quite a panic all the Hares scuttled off to a lake hard by, determined to drown themselves rather than live in such a continual state of fear. But just as they got near the bank of the lake, a troop of Frogs, frightened in their turn by the approach of the Hares scuttled off, and jumped into the water. “Truly,” said one of the Hares, “things are not so bad as they seem: “There is always someone worse off than yourself.” ”野兔与青蛙野兔经常被其他动物追捕，它们不知道该去哪，一有动物接近它们，便望风而逃。一天它们看见一群受惊的野马跑过，吓得赶紧逃往附近的一条河边，它们决定跳河自杀，以结束整天处于惊恐中的这种生活。但当它们走向河边时，一群青蛙被它们吓了一跳，纷纷跳进水里。一只野兔说：“看来不是很糟，总有人比你自己更差。”
