HERE we are out in the wild woods. What a pret-ty lit-tle glade it is,
with a spring of fresh wa-ter in it! But see, there are two stags here,
fight-ing as if they were bit-ter foes. Their great wide-spread ant-lers
are locked in-to each oth-er's. It some-times hap-pens in these fights
that the ant-lers get so fast-ened to-geth-er that the stags can-not get
them a-part. Then they both die. This will show you how quar-rels of-ten
have ve-ry sad ends.
