The Wolf and the Shepherds
by Aesop
A WOLF, passing by, saw some Shepherds in a hut eating for their dinner a haunch of mutton. Approaching them, he said: What a clamor you would raise, if I were to do as you are doing!
Moral:
Men are too apt to condemn in others the very things they practice themselves
