But he who speaks the truth ought to stand higher than he who 5 it; permit me, therefore, to jump up the tree.” The lion agreed to this and when the squirrel was out of his 6 he thus addressed him: “You seek to know how I am always merry. 7 gives me a joyous mind, but sire, you are just lacking in it. Think of the many crimes and cruelties you have8. How many animals have you killed, while I have been 9 in carrying nuts to help my folks! You hate, and I love!
